Growing Up Moffett: The Rise and Fall of Innocence in a Pathos Plagued Year (edit title)

Shelfari edited the description of Growing Up Moffett: The Rise and Fall of Innocence in a Pathos Plagued Year Monday, August 3 2009.

• A Gen-Y, coming of age memoir about a family encountering and overcoming tragedy through the eyes of their precocious and witty 12-year-old daughter. In a writing style somewhere between Harper Lee and Sarah Vowell, author Sarah E. Moffett recalls the time when, at age twelve, the life of her family suddenly began to unravel after a simple phone call from a dying family member. What follows is a struggle to retain faith, hope, and love in the midst of inexplicable death and loss. Growing Up Moffett is written from a child s perspective, yet embraces the darkness that comes with the loss of innocence and the beginning of grasping death on an intimate level at an early age.
