Summary
Summer 1971. Adolescent Maybe Collins' life is upended by the appearance of her mother Camille, who disappeared nine years earlier. And Camille has written a best-selling memoir about motherhood and Women's Liberation, which gives only passing reference to Maybe's existence. Camille is distant and confounding, and Maybe tries to piece together her mother's life - why she left, the truth behind her famous memoir, and the future of their fractured relationship. But when Maybe discovers that her mother is writing another book - a book about her return - the betrayal is fierce and painful, and Maybe resolves to teach Camille a lesson that will change them all forever. 2017
