Elegies for the Brokenhearted (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780393340235)

Who are the people you'll never forget? For Mary Murphy, there are five, eulogized here in an utterly unforgettable voice. Mary tells the story of her own life--her childhood spent trading one home and father figure for another, her efforts to track down her rebellious sister, and her winding search for purpose--through her experiences and encounters with the people who shaped her path. The result is an unconventional and moving story about identity, family, and belonging.
