About When We Lost Our Heads
The intimate and intense nature of female friendship takes center stage, and changes the course of history, in Heather O’Neill’s newest novel, When We Lost Our Heads. Once the lives of Marie Antoine, the charismatic and spoiled daughter of a sugar baron, and Sadie Arnette, the sly and brilliant daughter of a Montreal politico, collide, the world around them will never be the same.
Separated after a game that goes from dangerous to deadly, Marie and Sadie’s lives lead them back to one another again and again, ultimately asking the question of whether or not one relationship can destroy you. When We Lost Our Heads looks at power, privilege, female desire, and how gender and status influence who you are - and who you will become.
