Insightful in terms of Motherhood and sacrifices made by mothers and women that go unseen. Revolves around the idea of kin-keeping. It was an eye-opening read regarding familial relationships and loss. Each chapter is from the perspective of a different family member, helps you feel connected to the plot.
Moderate: Grief and Alcoholism
Minor: Child death, Death of parent, and Abandonment
