As the CEO of the agency that operates the shelter in which Norma lived, I knew only part of Norma's story. Mira has opened the door to the other chapters of her life. Through Mira's book I can feel the intensity of a mother's love, a young daughter's adoration, their worlds crumbling from the devastations caused by untreated mental illness. Thank you Mira for your courage, the depth of your love. You have humanized the tragedy of untreated mental illness, the toll of homelessness.Truly a gift.

My wife brought home an advanced copy from her employer (Barnes & Noble). I can't put the book down. Beautiful story. Strong imagery. Potent emotion. Recommend, for sure.

Will pass this along. Amazing effect here, guys. Chilling. Wow. I look forward to reading this book, Mira. The draft bits I read a few years ago were stunning and touched me deeply. I am very happy for your publication and I'm telling everyone about it.

Just to clarify, I know this is Mira's book, but noticed Audrey's endorsement, and know that if she supports it, I will love it b/c I love her books! And I love Mira's list, too!
