Hoping to reconnect with a former, healthier self, she instead faces a confused and dying grandmother, her ever-present nurse who seems bent on thwarting each of Rachel's desires, and a changed ex-boyfriend--her first and most passionate love. As a constant rain threatens the nearby dam, Rachel struggles to discern what's happened to the past, who she's become, and what kind of a life she will make for herself now--one that clings to ghosts or opens bravely to a wild new geography.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom the acclaimed author of \u003ci\u003eNina: Adolescence\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Priest's Madonna\u003c\/i\u003e comes a gripping new novel that depicts the transformative power of motherhood with honesty, wit, and compassion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Red Hen Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781597097536\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/15\/2016 pg. 16\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Amy Hassinger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39521705197749,"sku":"9781597097536","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_2877637b-4fa7-483d-92ba-46d5ca88a5c9.jpg?v=1616506297","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/after-the-dam-9781597097536","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
