A realist novel with lyrical overtones, Perfect Happiness explores the effect that witnessing a terrorist assassination has on a sixteen-year-old girl. The narrative moves from the moment the assassination takes place to fourteen years later, and the novel, both moral and confessional in tone, navigates those two planes effortlessly. By confronting such horror the author makes a clear stand against a pursuit of happiness devoid of conscience.
