“Never has it been more aptly presented than in this engaging novel that love can take us all on unexpected journeys—often when we least expect it. Here is a story that is part mystery, part meditation, part romance, part imperative. It is presented from different points of view: cake-baking Mona, mistress of a boarding house, for whom a long-ago act of love for a friend leads to a complicated romance. Mona's teenage daughter, Oneida, whose tentative forays into love bring her far more than she anticipated. And Arthur, a man widowed too soon, on a path that will lead him to understand who his young wife really was. Kate Racculia has a strong and original voice, and a lot to say about the chances we take—or miss.”—Elizabeth Berg, author of The Last Time I Saw You

Away (Paperback)

$14.00

Away is the lyrically told story of a woman who searches for the lost daughter she thought was killed by the Nazis. She decides that the best way to return to Eastern Europe from New York City is to journey up through Alaska and to cross to Russia via the island chain. A tough and sometimes brutal tale that is well worth the read.
