A gripping, intricately detailed first book that poses the question, "How much do we owe the people we love?"
Carrie Bell has lived in Wisconsin her whole life. THE DIVE FROM CLAUSEN'S PIER will speak to everyone who has ever considered leaving when they knew they should remain, and to anybody who has ever been trapped—not only by circumstance, but also by the depth of their own love. For as long as anybody can remember, she has had the same boyfriend, best friend, and positive connection with her mother. But when a terrible accident paralyzes her fiancé, Mike, Carrie is forced to reevaluate her understanding of who she is and what it means to be at home.
The book by Ann Packer explores the desire to live completely and the tension between being who we must be for ourselves and who we wish to be to others in a morally complicated and very gratifying way. An incredible first release from an incredible new artist.
