An unforgettable portrait of love, loss, regret, and forgiveness.
After her parents' divorce, a young girl's world is upended when her mother marries a wealthy widower with four children of his own. Set against the backdrop of Manhattan's Upper West Side, this evocative memoir traces the uneasy transformation of a blended household - where strangers become siblings bound by shared trauma, quiet acts of loyalty, and the unspoken bonds forged in childhood. "A compassionate and unforgettable New York memoir that drew me in completely. The child's fear, love, and resilience come through on every page." -Jane Pollak, Author, Too Much of Not Enough Jessica Bram is an essayist and author of the memoir Happily Ever After Divorce: Notes of a Joyful Journey.
