Opis

Inspired by a footnote to a case the author read in her first year of law school, My Mother Madly is the poignant, gripping story of young Keefe Stafflin and her mother, Olene, who is unlike the other mothers in their small town in the 1950s. When Olene slowly becomes unhinged and Keefe begins to believe her mother's paranoid delusions, the state threatens to take over custody. Jane M. Newby publishes poetry, fiction, narrative nonfiction, and a popular blog, "Idaho to New York City." Other available titles from her are "In Japan's Backcountry," a memoir travelogue, "The Closest Things to Dreams," a short story collection, and "A Thief of Roses," a poetry collection in both English and Bulgarian.
