Lorsque sa mère meurt, Dylan a du mal à trouver son identité. Un road trip dans l'outback avec son petit ami en deuil de sa maman voit un lien improbable se développer. Mais cela ne durera pas...
Dylan rêve de naviguer à travers l'océan vers la France avec sa mère. Paris, imagine Dylan, est un endroit où sa peau noire ne la fera pas se démarquer, un endroit où elle pourrait sentir qu'elle appartient.
Quand elle perd sa mère dans un accident bizarre, Dylan se retrouve dans un voyage très différent : un voyage sur la route à travers l'outback australien sous les soins du petit ami en deuil de sa mère, Pat. Au fur et à mesure qu'ils traversent des villes reculées de plus en plus loin de l'eau, Dylan aspire à, elle et Pat forment un lien improbable : un lien qui sera rompu lorsque Pat quittera Dylan avec une famille qu'elle n'a jamais connue.
Metal Fish, Falling Snow parle d'une jeune fille à la recherche d'une identité alors qu'elle navigue dans un chagrin impensable. Un regard chaleureux, drôle et original sur les familles perdues et trouvées, ce roman Own Voices célèbre la résilience du cœur humain et le sens de la maison.
