Magpie -- Bronwen Carson

<p>Maggie Morris resembles a human. Unknown and unattached, she moves seamlessly through her days, a polished collection of patterns. Her only honest relationship is with the dormant tree outside her Brooklyn loft window. When she unexpectedly runs into her childhood best friend, Dana, a Tsalagi girl who disappeared the summer they turned nine, Dana's cryptic references about the events surrounding her disappearance launch Maggie down a rabbit hole of questions, not only about that long-ago summer but about who she's become and why. </p><p><br></p><p>Magpie explores appropriation and masking as the means through which an undiagnosed autistic woman builds a functional identity, burying her true one in the process. Maggie is difficult, odd, and soulful-in search of not only answers to a childhood mystery but an authenticity she has no idea how to recognize.</p><p><br></p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Bronwen Carson<br><b>Publisher:</b> Unleash Press<br><b>Published:</b> 03/01/2023<br><b>Pages:</b> 330<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.84lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.69d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781737519485
