Augusta Locke

A six-generation tale told from the perspective of matriarch Gussie Locke explores how abandonment played a pivotal role in her life, from her decision to run away from home and her struggles as a single mother to her own daughter's flight and her grandchildren's efforts to find answers, in a story set against the panoramic backdrop of the American West in the twentieth century.
