Why read it?
1 author picked Larque on the Wing as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Larque is an unusual and sympathetic protagonist. She’s a wife, mother, and moderately successful businesswoman, but thinks of herself as a failed artist.
She also has the ability to create doppelgangers, temporary doubles of the people in her life. But this time, they’re a lot less temporary. Sky is her ten-year-old self, rebellious and contemptuous of the choices her adult self has made, and Lark is a young gay man dealing with life in the early 1990s.
And Larque is both of them, as well as herself and the menacing Virtuous Woman who lurks in the background, waiting for her…
From Catherine's list on fantasy tales about women over 40.
