Under Magnoliaträden
Austin har knappt hunnit fylla fjorton år när hennes mamma oväntat dör i barnsäng. Hon lämnas kvar att ensam ta hand om sina sex syskon och sin pappa, som hon gör sitt bästa för att hindra från att dras ned i det mörker han så ofta hamnar i. Ansvaret att hålla ihop familjen och driva deras tobaksfarm vilar tungt på Austins axlar. När samhället sträcker ut hjälpande händer försöker hon desperat att dölja sanningen om vad som egentligen sker på gården. Ska hon våga släppa taget och lita på någon annan än sig själv? Att avslöja familjens hemlighet skulle innebära konsekvenser men det finns också frihet i sanningen.Under magnoliaträden är en gripande uppväxtskildring om förlorad barndom, ensamhet och psykisk ohälsa. Men det är också en varm berättelse om vänskap, kärlek och att våga be om hjälp. T.I. LOWE har tidigare skrivit tretton romaner, som alla älskats av hennes läsare. Under magnoliaträden är en djärv, öm och upplyftande berättelse som påminner om hyllade Där kräftorna sjunger."En läsupplevelse utöver det vanliga. Fram med pappersnäsdukarna!" Johanna Lundin, SVT Go'kväll"En hoppingivande och färgstark berättelse som håller läsaren fängslad från första sidan till den sista." Eva Åström, Expressen Söndag
