Feathers and Marrow

Feathers and Marrow is a courageous attempt to chronicle the progression into adulthood ... and it succeeds beautifully. Rebecca Harding plunges headfirst into her writing. She draws almost effortlessly from the innermost depths of her soul, and we are only too happy to see her emerge from the other side. Her words are inspiring -- and unfettered by any constraints. A walking contradiction, she treads the line between southern and transplant, adult and child, girl and woman ... only to realize that she is all that -- and more.
