Aunt Pearl by Irene Luxbacher, Monica Kulling

4.0

Aunt Pearl has nowhere to live, and so her sister invites her to live with her family. Pearl brings a grocery cart of her things with her...Pearl is not tidy...Pearl likes to search through the garbage...Pearl and her sister have different ways of doing things and they come into conflict. And one day Pearl is gone.

Aunt Pearl is a story that touches on the difficulties of homelessness as well as the complexity of relationships. It is strikingly true, and its ambiguous ending reflects the realities of life.
