Winner - 6th Annual Beverly Hills Book Award for Relationships and Parenting & Families Award Finalist in the "Parenting & Family" category of the 2017 Best Book Awards Finalist, 2018 Next Generation Indie Book Awards in the category of Memoirs--Overcoming Adversity/Tragedy Linda Atwell and her strong-willed daughter, Lindsey--a high-functioning young adult with intellectual disabilities--have always had a complicated relationship. But when Lindsey graduates from Silverton High School at nineteen and gets a job at Goodwill, she also moves into a newly remodeled cottage in her parents' backyard--and Linda believes that all their difficult times may finally be behind them. Life, however, proves not to be so simple. As Lindsey plunges into adulthood, she experiments with sex, considers a tubal ligation, and at twenty quits Goodwill and runs away with Emmett, a man more than twice her age. As Lindsey grows closer to Emmett, she slips further away from her family--but Linda, determined to save her daughter, refuses to give up. A touching memoir with unexpected moments of joy and humor, Loving Lindsey is a story about independence, rescue, resilience, and, most of all, love. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
