Skin & Bones (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Renée Watson | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

From the acclaimed #1 New York Times bestselling author comes a lyrical novel exploring sisterhood, motherhood, faith, love, body image, and ultimately about what gets shared from one generation to the next.

At 40, Lena Baker is at a seemingly steady and stable moment in life--between wine nights with her two best friends and her wedding just weeks away, she's happy in love and in friendship until a confession on her wedding day shifts her world.

Unmoored and grieving a major loss, Lena finds herself at odds with her friend, lost in the sea of online dating, and trying to teach her daughter self-love while struggling to do so herself. Through it all, she works tirelessly to bring the oft-forgotten Black history of Oregon to the masses, sidestepping the well-meaning but ignorant voices that don't see the value or audience of these stories.

Through Watson's poetic voice, skin & bones tells a story of heartbreak, healing, and who society makes space for.
