mother-daughter Thelma and Louise, hard partying, wise cracking,
and brave. A tragic-comic meditation on love, loss, and what we see
in the stars." --Micah Perks, author of What Becomes Us
"A fierce and funny meditation on family and loss that surprises
the reader again and again, full of beautiful sassiness and
skepticism even as it is so open to the numinous possibilities of

its strength. A stunning memoir." --Mary Clearman Blew, author of
