Publisher's Notes
First Line: "A flattened and drying daffodil was dangling off the little card that I had made my aunt Atie for Mother's Day."
Industry Reviews
"Written in prose as clear as a bell, magical as a butterfly, and resonant as drum talk...An impressive debut."
Julia Alvarez
"A novel that rewards the reader again and again with small but exquisite and unforgettable epiphanies."
Washington Post Book World - Bob Shacochis
"Her story gives voice, depth and anguish to the loving, bittersweet ties that bind her to her circle of women...a rich portrait of a lush countryside."
Book Jacket - Boston Globe
