Depicting the tempestuous multiracial world of artists and activists who lived in working-class Boston during the 1960s, \u003ci\u003eIndivisible\u003c\/i\u003e begins when its narrator, Henny, locks her husband in a closet so that she might better discuss things with God. On the verge of a religious conversion, Henny attempts to make peace with the dead by telling their stories.“In an age when many American artists and writers seem focused on projecting an aura of glib certitude, Fanny embraces radical indeterminacy. Reading her fiction feels something like facing a patch of wilderness--startling, beautiful, yet terrifyingly mysterious. Themes such as race and class, poverty and theology, women and oppression, are not merely explored, they are exploded.” \u003cb\u003e—Kim Jensen, \u003ci\u003eBomb\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e“In hate with her husband and in love with God, Henny decides to have a life that really matters. Fanny Howe likes Catholicism for its contradictions. Like Susan Sontag, each line she writes is the product of a lifetime of thinking that occurs off the page.” \u003cb\u003e—Sarah Schulman\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Fanny Howe is a hallowed voice of the violent and brutal twentieth century. A sacred idiot, a wise friend who passes a bottle of warmth through the icy night, who fishes of what haunts the depths.” \u003cb\u003e—Kazim Ali, author of \u003ci\u003eInquisition\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eFanny Howe is the author of more than twenty books of poetry and prose.
