You are a small thing, and you must learn to fight. Swiv has taken her grandmother' s advice too literally. Now she' s at home, suspended from school. Mom is pregnant and preoccupied - and so Swiv is in the older woman' s charge, receiving a very different form of education from a teacher with a style all her own. Grandma likes her stories fast, troublesome and funny. She' s known the very worst that life can throw at you - and has met it every time with a wild, unnamable spirit, fighting for joy and independence every step of the way. But will maths lessons based on Amish jigsaws and classes on How to Dig a Winter Grave inspire the same fire in Swiv, and ensure it never goes out? Time is running short. Grandma' s health is failing, the baby is on the way, as a family of three extraordinary women prepare to face life' s great changes together.
Miriam Toews is the author of six bestselling novels: Summer of My Amazing Luck, A Boy of Good Breeding, A Complicated Kindness, The Flying Troutmans, Irma Voth, and All My Puny Sorrows, and one work of non-fiction, Swing Low: A Life.
