“I think back on things that happened. And I think about how if you were to tell stories about us, about our family, you might raise up your eyebrows and you might say, “Well, no wonder.” I bet you think you can pinpoint where it started for her. It’s easy to think that, when you can look back at something as a whole. But when you’re living it, day by day, it’s like you’re in the belly of something and you can’t see its whole shape from the inside.”

A stunning debut novel that will make you laugh and cry.
