Set in the summer of 1976, the story explores themes of alienation and identity through the eyes of fourteen-year-old Marcy Moon, who idolizes her captivating sister Cleo. As Marcy navigates life in a predominantly white town in Virginia, she grapples with her longing to emulate Cleo's boldness and sexuality, while also facing the emotional distance from their mother, who struggles with her own past. The sisters' deep connection with their father adds complexity, highlighting his desire to be a good parent amidst his personal struggles.

Two first-generation Korean-American sisters--Cleo and her younger sister, Marcy, who yearns to be everything her idolized older sister is--experience a traumatic summer of growing up, emerging sexuality, and sudden death that transforms their lives forever. Reprint. 15,000 first printing.
