Synopsis Misty's husband, a carpenter named Peter, is in a coma after a suicide attempt. She herself is an artist who doesn't make art; instead, she's a waitress at the hotel on the beautiful but touristy island where she lives with her preadolescent daughter. Then, oddly, she becomes ill--and starts to paint. And can't stop.

"[W]riting as an act of self-preservation gives Palahniuk's new novel...its force....Misty [is] one of his most human, sensitively drawn narrators." New York Times Book Review - Tyler Antrim (08/31/2003)
