Description

“We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves” is a novel written by Karen Joy Fowler, published in 2013. The story revolves around Rosemary Cooke, a young woman grappling with the complexities of her family’s past and the impact it has had on her life.

The novel begins with Rosemary reflecting on her unconventional upbringing and the disappearance of her sister, Fern, when they were both children. As the narrative unfolds, Rosemary reveals the truth about her family: her father is a psychologist who conducted a controversial experiment in which he raised Rosemary alongside a chimpanzee, Fern, as part of a study on human-animal communication.

As Rosemary recounts her childhood memories and the events leading up to Fern’s disappearance, she confronts painful truths about love, loss, and identity. Along the way, she grapples with feelings of guilt, confusion, and longing for her lost sister, whose absence continues to haunt her into adulthood.

“We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves” is celebrated for its insightful exploration of family dynamics, animal rights, and the ethical implications of scientific research. Fowler’s prose is both poignant and thought-provoking, inviting readers to consider the bonds that connect humans and animals and the ways in which our experiences shape who we are.

The novel is also known for its unexpected twists and turns, challenging readers to rethink their assumptions and reconsider the nature of memory and storytelling. It’s a compelling and emotionally resonant tale that lingers in the mind long after the final page is turned, leaving readers pondering the mysteries of love, loss, and the enduring power of family.
