Danni wants a life - her own. She's paid her dues. She moves to New
York to study photography. But, there's a small problem. Several
people think she hasn't paid her dues. And they're ready to collect
what they imagine she owes them. Whether it's love, respect, sex,
an apology, money, commitment, forgiveness or something else
entirely, Danni feels like she's being pulled in a million
directions that all wind up at the same dead end. A meddling
roommate, nosy neighbor, former lover, current lover, mostly-absent
father, jealous sibling, insecure best friend, demanding boss and
suicidal mother vie for attention while Danni tries to balance her
lousy waitressing job, approaching (see: dreaded) birthday party
and shrinking college fund. She'd gladly run and hide. But, they
all know where she lives. And she can't afford to move. Besides, if
she continues keeping everyone at arm's length, she'll lose a lot
more than a promising career. This verse novel - that can be read
in stanzas or what looks like ordinary prose - tells the story of a
young woman's quest for independence and career success.
Complicated by relationships that pull her in different directions,
that path leads Danni to an awakening she never expected - and
isn't quite sure she wants. Plans can change. But, Danni wonders...
can people?
