Description
Sugar Run A Novel by Mesha Maren is a searing and gritty debut about making a break for another life. After eighteen years in prison, Jodi McCarty is released and sets out to chart a better course for herself. Her journey takes her south, where she meets Miranda, a troubled young mother living in a motel room with her children. As they head towards a fresh start, Jodi must confront the past and the town that refuses to forget or change. Mesha Maren's writing is taut and burnished, capturing the charged insularity of rural West Virginia. This novel explores the use and treachery of makeshift families, and how our mistakes often lead us back to where we began.
