I AM THE CAGE
A coming-of-age story about a young woman running away from herself yet grasping to find a way back that's deeply moving, authentically raw, and humming with the possibility of a new love.
Fish Creek, Wisconsin. Beautiful. Quiet. Isolated. Anonymous. It's all that nineteen-year-old Elisabeth needs, and everything she wants. Cloistered in her tiny cabin, she's determined to be alone, hiding from her memories and making sure that no one can ever hurt her again.
But when a massive snowstorm strikes, plunging the town into darkness, Elisabeth finally allows herself to accept help from her neighbor, Noah, the town's young sheriff. Forced to show him more vulnerability than she ever intended, she realizes she can no longer outrun the scars of her childhood, and facing the darkness might be exactly what she needs to let the light in.
In a searing own-voices story accented by poignant childhood flashbacks and stunning poetry, Allison Sweet Grant's young adult debut is a powerful portrait of a young woman's journey to confront the medical trauma inflicted to "fix" herand heal her heart in the process.
