Summary
"Entangled in the 1980s Minneapolis punk scene, Julia suffered an unspeakable trauma that drove her into a conventional suburban existence, even as battles with mental illness and unresolved grief continue to scar the veneer of normalcy she tries so desperately to maintain. When her sixteen-year-old daughter goes missing, Julia can envision her every move, from the Minneapolis outskirts into the city's back alleys and abandoned corners. Here, amid a new generation of iconoclasts squatting in the abandoned Sabotage Cafe, Cheryl reenacts her mother's own coming-of-age - a sullied melange of drugs, awkward sex, glib anarchy and random acts of violence - and calls into question everything that either one of them might have hoped to become."--BOOK JACKET.
