Synopsis

Security is hard to find, even in a closely knit family. Thirteen year-old Lily can't count on having her own bedroom after two cousins move into the house. From week to week, her world changes, even as the farm remains the same. WWII is somewhere else, until her uncle is drafted. Then an empty mailbox becomes a worry. Her live-in cousin commits a series of escalating violent acts that brings about a crisis. Lily worries about where she belongs in the family as she comes to realize life has more questions than answers.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Letters from Germany keep the Reinhart family connected to a son serving as a soldier in 1945. An empty mailbox is a worry. Though they are a tight-knit clan and look out for one another, there are subterranean angers and resentments, missed opportunities and lingering regrets—all of which thirteen year-old Lily only vaguely comprehends. When a marriage unravels, more relatives move into the Reinhart homestead, bringing trouble as the boy Calvin commits an escalating series of violent acts. Lily both likes and resents her cousins and shares her loft while wishing they would move out. As she tries on makeup, ruminates about boys, and worries about where she belongs in the family, she comes to realize life has more questions than answers.
