The Difference

By Justine Delaney Wilson

On a January morning, Beth and Steve bring three-day-old Ismae home from the hospital. A little girl to complete their suburban family. Except Beth knows that Ismae is different. And that, as she gets older and stronger, her difference will become more obvious. As the future Beth imagined grows even more out of reach, the walls of their vast house close in on her, isolating her from Steve. Then she makes a terrible discovery ... Will Ismae's difference break her family apart? Or will Beth be able to see that it's the one thing that can save her? 'Little Ismae is an unforgettable character ... readers will be glad they've met her' BELINDA McKEON 'A novel about one woman's quest for an authentic life. When extraordinary new baby Ismae turns Beth's world inside out, she begins to understand the fierce power of mother-love and, through her daughter, learns to know and trust herself. A moving, convincing story of courage and burgeoning hope' NUALA O'CONNOR, AUTHOR OF MISS EMILY
