Description

A gripping novel about life in the wilderness, told with great tenderness and sincerity. My Abandonment is a mesmerizing tale of survival and hope, as seen through the startlingly honest voice of its young narrator. Thirteen-year-old Caroline lives with her father in an elaborate cave shelter on the outskirts of Portland, Oregon. Their days are spent living off the land, tending a garden, and storing food at the water's edge. But when a jogger stumbles upon their secret, everything changes. Inspired by a true story, this book is a gripping journey into life in the wilderness. With its short, disciplined narrative, My Abandonment is an unsettling yet moving exploration of human love and its consequences.
