Alice is an uptight, cardigan-wearing high school French teacher whose program has been cut. She and the narrator, her teenage daughter Nina, are storing years of personal teaching materials in the garage when the hippie father Alice deserted at sixteen drops into their lives. Against her better judgement, Alice lets him stay.
When the bank threatens their home, Nina sees a new side to her mother and this becomes a tale of individual backbone in the face of corporate greed. For teens and adults.
M. Stuever, Amazon Reviewer:
I ... found myself laughing, crying and getting totally sucked into the story. Yet ..., the ethical storyline is still sticking with me... the world needs more books like this...short, strong, compelling, but full of inspiration and hope that we not only can overcome the SYSTEM, we can change it and create a world where people count as much as profits.
