Description

'She closes her eyes, trying to remember more perfectly, trying to get the smell and the feel of that one afternoon clear in her head.'Sam's life is haunted by the day that her mother inexplicably abandoned her at the beach, leaving her homeless at thirteen. One minute she was surfing the pure, clean waves, and the next she was completely on her own.Years later, Sam has created a life for herself by the sea with her partner Em. When a coma patient is brought to the hospital where Sam works, she believes the woman to be her mother. Before she can discover the truth, she must unravel her own memories of that traumatic day.The True Green of Hope is a provocative novel about the natures of love, memory and belonging.
