コメント	In this brilliantly imagined novel, Amelia Earhart tells us what happened after she and her navigator, Fred Noonan, disappeared off the coast of New Guinea one glorious, windy day in 1937. And she tells us about herself. \nThere is her love affair with flying ("The sky is flesh") . . . . \nThere are her memories of the past: her childhood desire to become a heroine ("Heroines did what they wanted") . . . her marriage to G.P.
