Description

Based on the Elvis Presley song, this novel tells the story of Catrina Albright, a single mother living in a poor Chicago neighborhood. Despite her financial struggles, she is managing to keep her life together with the support of her colleagues and friends.

However, when Catrina reveals that she is pregnant, her boyfriend runs away, leaving her to face the challenges alone once again. Her 18-year-old son Thomas also gets into trouble, but his colleague and friend Maggie provides a lifeline of support.

The story explores the difficulties faced by those living in poverty, and the resilience required to overcome them. With its roots in American music, this novel offers a powerful portrayal of life on the margins.
