"Growing up had stolen the truth of us." Growing up in a small town in Montana not worth a name, Nick wants more. When Fate gives him an existence he can barely recognize, he searches for meaning in the future he wishes existed and attempts to escape a past that cannot be told, save for in the pages of a faded memory. Miel MacRae's lyrical and heart-rending debut novel, part confession and part wistful longing, is an incisive look at love and loss and what remains of a soul that is dashed against the rocky shorelines of hope. "Reads like an open love letter." -Jack Cameron, author of Ruin Your Life "A touching, deeply layered and visually rich story." -Susan Ethridge, editor of Last Week When I Was Young "The epitome of a book hangover." -Allie Burke, author of Paper Souls "Miel MacRae's writing hurts my heart, in a good way. I read this again immediately to savor the ache. That's right, twice in a row." -Julia Park Tracey, Poet Laureate Emeritus of Alameda, California
