Mouth Like Burned Wood

With enchanting language and images, this literary mini collection explores what it's like to be a young girl, with all of its challenges and triumphs. Grappling with loss, growing up, and new-found sexuality, each female voice evocatively narrates her story, as images of a family Christmas dinner, a bleak snow-covered grave yard, a sexy, unreachable mother, and even a magic show come to life. Through moments of heartbreak and beauty, each character reveals her strength and finds her own truth.
