Themes
- Love: Love is a central theme in Vanishing Land. It is the force that binds Sarah, Mattie, and Jess together, and it is the force that gives them the strength to overcome their challenges.
- Arson: Arson is a recurring motif in the novel. It is a symbol of the destruction that is taking place in the town, both physically and emotionally.
- Life in a Vanishing Land: The novel's title refers to the vanishing way of life in rural America. The town in which the novel is set is slowly dying, and its inhabitants are struggling to find their place in a changing world.
Characters
- Sarah: Sarah is a young woman who has returned home after a failed attempt at college. She is drawn to the thrill of setting fires, but she also longs for something more.
- Mattie: Mattie is a middle-aged waitress and recovering addict. She is haunted by her past and struggles to stay clean in a town where drugs are all too easy to come by.
- Jess: Jess is a young mother struggling to make ends meet. She is desperate to provide a better life for her son, but she is trapped in a cycle of poverty and addiction.
Setting
The novel is set in a small town in rural Pennsylvania. The town is slowly dying, and its inhabitants are struggling to find their place in a changing world. The opioid crisis, the loss of jobs, and the environmental degradation of their once-pristine surroundings are all taking their toll on the town.
Style
Carbo's writing is lyrical and evocative. She paints a vivid and haunting portrait of a small town in rural America grappling with the opioid crisis, environmental degradation, and the loss of its traditional way of life.
Vanishing Land is a powerful and moving novel that shines a light on the hidden corners of America. It is a story of love, loss, and redemption, and it is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
