About the Author:
Lori Lansens has written several screenplays. This is her first novel. She lives in Toronto, Canada.
From AudioFile:
In this heart-wrenching story about Canadian Addy Shadd, a 70-year-old woman looking back on her life even as she looks forward to caring for abandoned child Sharla Cody, Lansens looks deep into human nature and the many chances that life offers. Addy, a strong character with a big heart and a lifetime of sorrow, reflects on the highs and lows of her life as she accepts responsibility for the needy but lovable Sharla. In spite of all that life has dealt her, Addy remains true to her good nature, putting her best face forward at every turn. Emmy Award-winner Ruby Dee reads Addy's story with the same tough resolve one could imagine Addy herself showing. Dee captures Addy's joy and sorrow thoroughly and brings Lansens's far-reaching story vividly to life. H.L.S. © AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Re-jacketed after the success of The Girls. In the spirit of WHITE OLEANDER and THE COLOUR PURPLE, a heart-breaking and page-turning story about a seventy-year old woman who relives her life when a five-year-old girl is abandoned on her doorstep Sharla Cody is only five but has already had a troubled life. Then she finds herself dumped with an elderly neighbour when her mother takes off for the summer. Although Sharla is not the angelic child Addy Shadd had pictured when she agreed to look after her, the two soon forge a deep bond. To Addy's surprise, Sharla's presence brings back memories of her own childhood in Rusholme, a town settled by fugitive slaves in the mid-1800s. In the spirit of WHITE OLEANDER and THE COLOUR PURPLE, this is a story about the redeeming power of love and memory, and about two unlikely people who transform each other's lives forever. * Reissue of the first novel by the author of THE GIRLS, a Richard and Judy Bestseller Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
