A searing Southern story about confronting the difference between
the family you're born into and the family you choose, from the
acclaimed author of How to Bury Your Brother Lex fled Memphis years
ago, making ends meet with odd jobs teaching English around the
world. She only returns when she has no choice, when her godmother
presents her with a bargain she can't refuse. Lex has never
understood her mother, who died tragically right before Lex's
college graduation, but now she's got a chance to read her
journals, to try and figure out what sent her mother spiraling all
those years ago. The Memphis that Lex inhabits is more bourbon and
bbq joint than sweet tea on front porches, and as she pieces
together the Memphis her mother knew, seeing the lure of the world
through her mother's lush writing, she must confront more of her
own past and the people she left behind. Once all is laid bare, Lex
must decide for herself: What is the true meaning of family?
