HELEN . . . IS SIXTEEN AND PREGNANT. IT IS 1963. ABORTION IS A CRIME. WHAT CAN SHE DO?
Author Wendy Sibbison offers an insightful, thought-provoking perspective in this coming-of-age novel; a poignant exploration of burgeoning womanhood, mother-daughter relations, family dynamics, and sexual awakenings rooted in the mores of an era that offers lessons for the present. Beautifully written, a meaningful read for mature readers of all ages and for book groups interested in the debates about Roe v Wade.
