Overview

Notes From Your Bookseller

A blazing meteor of a novel from a literary star on the rise about alcoholic mother and former starlet Sonya, who fights for a relationship with her son — as well as a second chance at life. Convincing, compelling characters and stunning prose combine in this heart-rending window into the explosive combination of addiction and motherhood. Bright, Burning Things is an emotional and nuanced approach to hard-hitting subjects, and author Harding pulls from her own acting experience for a cinematic and authentic novel. For fans of Shuggie Bain and Three Women, this one will make the tears fall.
