In her debut novel, "Torch," bestselling author Cheryl Strayed
weaves a searing and luminous tale of a family's grief after
unexpected loss. "Work hard. Do good. Be incredible " is the advice
Teresa Rae Wood shares with the listeners of her local radio show,
"Modern Pioneers," and the advice she strives to live by every day.
She has fled a bad marriage and rebuilta life with her children,
Claire and Joshua, and their caring stepfather, Bruce. Their love
for each other binds them as a family through the daily struggles
of making ends meet. But when they received unexpected news that
Teresa, only 38, is dying of cancer, their lives all begin to
unravel and drift apart. Strayed's intimate portraits of these
fully human characters in a time of crisis show the varying truths
of grief, forgiveness, and the beautiful terrors of learning how to
keep living.
