The view from Coffin Ridge: A childhood exhumed

The View From Coffin Ridge: A Childhood Exhumed is a one-of-a-kind story and Gwen’s fresh and distinctive voice makes it even more compelling. I predict this book will be one of the strongest to come out of the MFA program to date.”

The universe is made up of stories not atoms. What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life? The whole world would split open.
