ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves" by Karen Joy Fowler follows Rosemary Cooke, who recounts her unusual childhood marked by the presence of her chimpanzee sibling, Fern, raised as part of the family. The story explores Rosemary’s emotional journey as she navigates the complexity of family life, identity, and the consequences of a psychological experiment conducted by her father. The novel delves into themes of memory, trauma, ethical dilemmas in human-animal relationships, and the impact of scientific experiments on family dynamics. Rosemary’s quest for understanding and healing drives the narrative, blending humor, sorrow, and thought-provoking social commentary.
