Livia, who has been running for long enough to believe her past may never catch up with her, is now compelled to catch her breath and confront the daughter she left behind. Mickey, who is angry about having a mother who left, a father who died, and the mess she has made of her life, is forced to rely on the very person who abandoned her. And Summer, whose new grandmother is peculiar, and whose mother is always depressed or out looking for men to distract her, is left to roam and seeks refuge with new friends, ones who are willing to give her the attention that Mickey won't. But who are these kind strangers, and will they keep her safe? When the year ends, the family of three becomes two. Burning with hope and desire, this is a debut novel about motherhood, class, and race, which sings a soulful song about the damage we do to the people we love most.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 370g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 144 x 224 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781800815582\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Main\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orlaine McDonald","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":46443776016634,"sku":"9781800815582","price":12.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1721448297335_book.jpg?v=1721638157","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/no-small-thing-9781800815582","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
