In this lyrically woven epistolary novel, a young mother’s awakening exposes the hidden hardships of womanhood and the unspoken messiness of motherhood. Driven by rage and desperation, April leaves her eight-year-old daughter behind to embark on a journey to find herself.
The story of a runaway mother’s ten days of freedom—and the pain, desire, longing, and wonder we find on the messy road to enlightenment—from Pulitzer Prize winner Quiara Alegría Hudes.
