The Story of Abrielle Foster

By Christian M. Franklin

The Story of Abrielle Foster follows a young girl's deeply personal and emotionally rich journey as she navigates life within a new, unfamiliar foster family. Set against the backdrop of a home simmering with complex relationships, unspoken truths, and the subtle tensions of race, class, and belonging, Abrielle finds herself caught between the lingering memory of her incarcerated mother and the disorienting rituals of her new life. At the center of this coming-of-age tale is Abrielle's evolving relationship with Marley, her unpredictable foster sister, whose affections blur the line between friendship and first love. Through candid reflections, poetic introspection, and flashes of dark humor, the story unfolds with honesty and nuance, offering a window into childhood resilience, queer longing, identity, and the haunting ache of connection in a world that often misunderstands what love is supposed to look like.
