Over the summer she decides to plant a milpa in her backyard, and as she digs the ground and plants her seeds, her neighbors in turn delve into their past. The ripple effects of grief, childlessness, illness and displacement saturate their stories, secrets seep out and questions emerge--Who was my wife? Why did my Mom leave? Can I turn back the clock? And how could a girl who knew how to swim drown?   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Jufresa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Jufresa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
