Produktbeschreibung

On Fire is an award-winning memoir that readers are calling a heartbreaking and sometimes darkly humorous mother-daughter, coming-of-age tale written with gritty authenticity by author and award-winning journalist Steph West. In this cohesive collection of provocative stories, West details the precarious journey of raising her daughter while going through a quarter-life crisis of her own. She writes intimately about their mother-daughter relationship and how it, and Savannah's belief in her, kept her going every day in this poignant and uplifting exploration of the mother-daughter relationship. West's sharp observations of the systemic way our culture marginalizes single mothers-and contrasting intimate stories of raising her daughter within that culture-makes it a must-read for mothers and fathers of daughters, and children of single mothers.

West is an award-winning author and journalist formerly working for outlets including Gannett/USA Today and Fox Sports Ohio. On Fire won the 2023 Firebird Book Award Competition in the Memoir category.
