***
It’s the middle of the 2008 financial crisis and one couple’s dreams are collapsing before their eyes. Nick and his wife Amy have been hit by layoffs and forced to relocate from fast-paced Manhattan to more modest digs in North Carthage, Missouri.
When things couldn’t get any worse, Amy disappears.
A mystery begins to hover over North Carthage:
“Was Amy a murder victim? Was her husband the perpetrator?â€
In 2012, Gillian Flynn took readers by storm with a mystery so unforgettable it spent 8 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Gone Girl was praised by fans and critics alike, receiving rave reviews in The New York Times, New Yorker, People Magazine, and Time.
This Sidekick to Gone Girl provides even more intrigue for Flynn fans to chew on, offering an insightful look at the characters, story, and narrative structure that made Gone Girl a hit. Readers have raved that Dave Eagle "breaks down the book beautifully" to "keep you entertained even longer." Others have said that his Sidekick is "perfect if you want a vivid understanding of the story" because it "really puts you in touch with the many layers of the novel."
In this Sidekick, you will find:
• Chapter synopses, breaking down each section of the novel with a recap of the story, critical analysis, and commentary on the hidden motives of the characters. Each summary examines the most important bits of dialogue, revealing how they develop the novel’s rich and thought-provoking themes.
• Exploration of Alternate Endings. What if Amy had taken completely different actions early in the novel? What if Amy’s parents understood her true character? In this section, you’ll encounter a discussion of plenty of exciting possibilities to chew on after you read Flynn’s novel.
• Themes and symbols. In Gone Girl, Flynn makes subtle but clear allusions to one of the greatest 19th century American novels. In the Themes and Symbols section of the Sidekick, you’ll find out what that novel is and how these allusions help to develop Gone Girl’s most poignant themes.
• Character analysis. Upon its release, Gone Girl was immediately praised for the unique “co-narration†between Nick and Amy, a highly innovative narrative structure that helped reveal both characters’ motives. The Sidekick explores these (and other) characters even further, offering deep and often surprising insights into what makes them tick.
Whether you’re already a fan of Gone Girl or a new reader preparing to dig into it for the first time, this Sidekick is sure to provide a fun, illuminating, and entertaining supplement to Flynn’s spectacular novel.
