Family - Hardcover

by Marie Therese Bolden (Author)

In this compelling series of short stories, Marie Therese Bolden moves effortlessly from her account of experiencing sexual assault as a young girl in Sweet Na vet to the sophistication and poise of a modern woman reflecting on her life, exploring an incident of her mother s domestic abuse and her father s philandering in A Father s Legacy. In Sisters, she examines ubiquitous themes and the complexities of sibling relationships, as well as the role gender plays in family dynamics. Intertwining her story of heartbreaking, somatic grief following the sudden death of her twin brother in Tomorrow, each tale explores universal themes, culminating in triumph over adversity and as a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit.
