With brilliance and beauty, Celeste Ng dissects a microcosm of American society just when we need to see it beneath the microscope ..."--Jodi Picoult, New York Times -bestselling author of Small Great Things and Leaving Time In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is planned - from the layout of the winding roads, to the colors of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the rules. Enter Mia Warren - an enigmatic artist and single mother - who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenaged daughter Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl become more than tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious past and a disregard for the status quo that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community. When old family friends of the Richardsons attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle erupts that dramatically divides the town--and puts Mia and Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets in Mia's past. But her obsession will come at unexpected and devastating costs. Little Fires Everywhere explores the weight of secrets, the nature of art and identity, and the ferocious pull of motherhood - and the danger of believing that following the rules can avert disaster.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii Kai Public Library Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult New Books LT Ng item being mended   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Library For The Blind and Print Disabled Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Naalehu Public Library Large Type LT Ng Damaged   Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Large Type LT Ng Checked out 05/16/2024 Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Bookmobile Large Type LT Ng Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
