Publisher's Synopsis
Buoyed by the lyrical redemptive voice that characterises McFadden's writing, The Warmest December tells the powerful, deeply moving story of one Brooklyn family and the alcoholism and abuse that marked the years of their lives. Narrated by Kenzie Lowe the story moves fluidly between the past and the present as she visits her dying father and finds that choices she once thought were beyond her control are very much hers to make. The Warmest December is ultimately a cathartic tale of hope, healing and forgiveness.
