NANCY HUSTON
Elegant pianist-instructor’s child is born only slightly over two pounds, one kilo. So often there are major problems when children that young are kept alive outside of the womb. This live birth is after several pregnancies that ended midterm. The ICU pediatrician tells Lara that the only way her daughter, Maya, will survive is if she is the child’s life line. She dedicates herself and her life to her daughter. The marriage disintegrates but the child lives. She grows into a little angel, petite and full of joy and lightness of being.
But what will happen when their roles are reversed? It is a slim volume, well worth the read.
