Hope Edelman is a woman adrift, questioning her place in her marriage, her profession, and the larger world when her three-year-old daughter Maya introduces a curiously disruptive imaginary friend, Dodo. As Dodo becomes more intrusive and aggressive by the day, Hope is forced to confront the possibility that something is seriously awry with her child. When conventional methods fail, in desperation she finds herself seeking an unorthodox solution in a jungle in Central America.
The readers who loved the author's international bestseller, MOTHERLESS DAUGHTERS will recognise the same warmth, wit and intelligence in this much more personal story of a woman's unusual quest to heal her daughter and save her family . But it is a story that will resonate with those who have never heard of Hope Edelman - and who don't have a daughter with an imaginary friend. This story is much more than that.
Hope's uncompromisingly honest exploration of the very real challenges of juggling the roles of mother, wife, lover, writer and someone looking for answers will resonate deeply with women and men everywhere.
In the bestselling tradition of SALVATION CREEK, this remarkable woman's story is searingly honest, warm, intelligent - and unputdownable.
