With insight, humor, and heartbreaking immediacy, Patricia Elam presents a beautifully written portrait of two unforgettable women, and the teenager they both cherish, as they negotiate the ever-shifting terrain of friendship and identity. And a devastating crisis will challenge both women to face the hardest of truths. Haunted by her beloved mother's inspiring yet disturbing emotional legacy, Moxie struggles to understand her friend, while her own refusal to compromise threatens to shatter her relationship with Zadi. Anguished over the loss of her second child and her husband's recent withdrawal, Norma takes refuge in a complex love affair that puts her at odds with Moxie - and with herself. But suddenly the bond between them begins to unravel in unexpected ways. Best friends after meeting in college, Norma and Moxie are each other's reality check and reassurance. Probation officer Moxie Dilliard is as dedicated to her ideals as she is to her talented teenage daughter, Zadi. Photographer Norma Simmons-Greer has a loving husband, a lively young son, and an upper-middle-class lifestyle. But now they're at a crossroads where understanding may not be enough - a place where they must risk it all to rediscover what they cherish most. In her dazzling debut novel, award-winning author Patricia Elam takes us into the lives of two completely different women whose friendship has helped them weather just about everything.
