Vendela Vida

Recenzii

“The year is probably too young to make this kind of pronouncement, but the new novel I know I'm going to be rereading in the coming months and spending a lot of time thinking about is Vendela Vida's We Run the Tides. It's a tough and exquisite sliver of a short novel whose world I want to remain lost in.  . . . [A] spectacular narrator . . . [A] wonder of a novel." — Maureen Corrigan, NPR’s Fresh Air
“Vida captures the unstable sensation of early adolescent reality, that period teetering between childhood and young adulthood in which outlandish lies can seem weirdly plausible and basic facts totally alien…the affectionate specificity of the portrait she offers is one of the book’s real pleasures...Vida’s San Francisco is ramshackle and eccentric, home to heiresses but also tide pools of counterculture backwash."
New York Times Book Review
“Vida populates her stories with liars, runaways, the reckless — those most adept at reconfiguring their appearances, those caught in the process of becoming. She is excellent at writing teenagers, who try on and discard identities as quickly as the days pass. . . . A nod to Edith Wharton. . . . Detailed and vibrant . . . As much a novel of girlhood vulnerability as it is a story fortification and fear.” — Los Angeles Review of Books
"Set in a pre-tech boom San Francisco that feels moody, foreboding, and magical, this enigmatic tale of adolescent friendship, a disappearance, and coming-of-age is smart, sly, and as knowing about the mind and heart of a teenage girl as an Elena Ferrante novel." — O, the Oprah Magazine
"We Run the Tides is smart, perceptive, elegant, sad, surprising and addictive. And it’s also FUNNY. Who knew that you could combine all of those qualities into one slim volume? Not many writers, that’s for sure. I loved every single page, and was sorry when I had to say goodbye to Eulabee and her family.”  — Nick Hornby
"The dreamy yearning and turmoil of youth are evoked here so vividly as to seem supernaturally conjured.  However long ago you were a teenager, We Run the Tides will bring the quandaries and sensations right back.  Vendela Vida has written a novel of absorbing, exquisite economy and percipience.  She has also written an intimate allegory of our unraveling tether to truth.” — Lisa Halliday, author of Asymmetry
"Vida, whose polished and incisive prose is in the Didion mode, inflects this droll and sensitive coming-of-age tale . . . with eviscerating social commentary. A nimble and arresting drama about the spell cast by beauty, the compulsion to lie, the valor of forthrightness, and the inevitability of the inexplicable."  — Booklist (starred review)
"I didn't want it to end."  — Tom Stoppard 
"The girls in this book are everything, all of us: shape-shifters and outcasts, predators and prey, they lean into and away from the world that claims to know them. Vendela Vida is an astoundingly good writer and the ideas she’s wrestling with in these pages—about sexuality and seeing, storytelling and identity—are profound." — Danzy Senna, author of New People
“From the first page, We Run the Tides is captivating. A story about girlhood, friendship, and the pathologies of innocence and victimhood, it reminds me of Ferrante’s My Brilliant Friend, but set against the furious backdrop of San Francisco’s Sea Cliff neighborhood. Its scope, ferocity, and main characters are unforgettable. Vendela Vida is masterful at constructing the nuances and complications of how young girls become aware of their power, and the choices they make once they wield it.” — Sally Wen Mao, author of Oculus 
“The young narrator of Vendela Vida’s new novel is cast out of her friend crew (For what? For nothing) at the moment she and the girls around her are just beginning to understand the power they hold, and how to wield it. There’s violence lurking here, but also humor (it’s funny!), also love. This is one of the best novels about girlhood and female friendship I’ve ever read.”   — Mary Beth Keane, author of Ask Again, Yes
"We Run the Tides is knowing, sometimes funny and always propulsive as it examines girlhood, friendship, and the strong pull of the past."  — Meg Wolitzer
“[A]n engaging, intelligent story.” — Town & Country
“If you can’t get enough ’80s nostalgia (and I count myself among you), Vendela Vida’s latest will scratch that itch. In this tense story of teen female friendship and betrayal in the pre–tech bro years of San Francisco, BFFs Eulabee and Maria Fabiola have a dramatic falling out that’s followed by Maria Fabiola’s disappearance. Early readers have been responding with ALL CAPS–level excitement; my curiosity is suitably piqued. “  — LitHub
“[An] atmospheric, glistering novel of adolescence and innocence lost...Vida perfectly captures the panicky feeling inherent to adolescence, of wanting to know everything that's going on, but being aware that you'll probably only ever scratch the surface of the truth.” — Refinery29
“Vendela Vida crafts a tense tale of girlhood, privilege, and innocence.”
Alma
“[A] perceptive tale of losing innocence and finding one’s true self. As consistently surprising as it is hauntingly resonant (not to mention often very funny), Vida’smchronicle of female friendship is a fast, addictive read.” — Entertainment Weekly
“[T]here’s something naughty, almost gleeful about this nostalgia-soaked portrayal of pre-tech-boom San Francisco that keeps the pages turning."  — San Francisco Chronicle
“Exhilarating, maddening, thoroughly entertaining novel…irresistible voice…With its tangible, tactile details peppered throughout and super-smart,  quirky Eulabee at it’s helm, We Run the Tides is deceptively sweet—and as addictive as candy.” — Boston Globe
"In We Run the Tides, author Vendela Vida has crafted a coming-of-age tale replete with friendship, sexuality and a good dose of mystery. Vida’s writing shines as she captures this exciting, vulnerable and sometimes worrisome time when a girl is puzzling out her position in the world, who she wants to be, and how that fits with the person others have decided she already is." — Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
