"Kasischke's writing does what good poetry does -- it shows us an alternate world and lulls us into living in it... The language catapults us into another plane of existence, one of facade and reflection." -- New York Times Book Review

"Haunting, unsettling, and unforgettable, The Raising limns love, longing, belonging and the things we only think we know about life -- and yes, death." -- Caroline Leavitt, author of Pictures of You

From Laura Kasischke, the critically acclaimed, bestselling author of In a Perfect World and The Life Before Her Eyes, comes a hypnotic mystery about one girl's tragic death and the fallout that occurs on her closely-knit college campus. Part Stephen King, part Donna Tartt, and wholly unforgettable , Kasischke's The Raising sets a new standard for hair-raising literary suspense.
