Publisher's Synopsis
A Summer In South Minneapolis: A House Owner For Three Months is a personal story of a family in crisis in a friendly, historic Seward neighborhood, geographically located by the Mississippi River to the east and downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota to the southeast. The death of a mother leaves a rundown hoarder's house and a combustible cocktail of addiction, poverty, and trauma to sort. Survivors struggle to feel loved and important while trying to close the chapter of abuse for good. Dotted with humor and colorful characters, this story is a snapshot in time of the summer of 2015, with a tribute to 90s alternative rock and flashbacks from growing up in a dysfunctional family of scientists in the Soviet Union. Includes practical tips on how to prepare a house for sale by the owner.
