Description
A stunning debut novel about identity, family, and self-discovery. Kiko Himura struggles to express herself, feeling overshadowed by her mother's narcissism and uncertain about her half-Japanese heritage. When she fails to get into art school, her life is further complicated by the arrival of an abusive uncle.
Despite her fears, Kiko embarks on a journey to tour art schools on the west coast, seeking freedom from her home life. Along the way, she uncovers life-changing truths about herself and her past, learning to be brave and embracing her true self.
This luminous and heartbreaking story explores the complexities of family relationships, social anxiety, and finding one's place in the world. A poignant and empowering novel that will resonate with many readers.
