The beautiful struggle of a
girl desperate for the one relationship that has
caused her the most
pain.Cassie O'Malley has
spent the past two and a half years in a mental institution—dumped there by her
mother, against her will. Now, at 18, Cassie emancipates herself, determined to
start over. She attends college, forms new friendships, and even attempts to
start fresh with her mother. But before long, their unhealthy relationship
threatens to pull Cassie under once again. As Cassie struggles to reclaim her
life, childhood memories persist and confuse, and Cassie must consider whose
version of history is real, and more important, whose life she must
save.
A bold, literary story about the fragile complexities of mothers and daughters and learning to love oneself, The First Time She Drowned reminds us that we must dive deep into our pasts if we are ever to move forward.
