Unexpected Gifts
by Mallery, S. R.
Can we learn from our ancestral past? Do our relatives behaviors help
mold our own? In Unexpected Gifts, that is precisely what happens to
Sonia, a confused college student, forever choosing the wrong man.
Searching for answers, she begins to read her family’s diaries and
journals from America’s past: the Vietnam War, Woodstock, and Timothy
Leary era; Tupperware parties, McCarthyism, and Black Power; the Great
Depression, dance marathons, and Eleanor Roosevelt; the immigrant
experience and the Suffragists. Back and forth the book journeys weaving
yesteryear with modern life until finally, she gains enough clarity to
make the right choices
