Hopey: from Commune to Corner Office

Hopey chronicles the story of a courageous girl in a 70s Southern Indiana commune complete with flowers for dinner a ball of acid in the freezer and orgies on the living room floor. The chaos of her formative years which are littered with violent episodes periods of hunger and assaults leads Hope to set off on her own at the age of fifteen.Written as intense past moments reflective chapters and flash-forwards these three voices come together to transcend time and connect the past and the present. Honest and raw with no request for empathy or complaint the book is a celebration of the human spirit and an exhilarating read. Hopey is a reminder that we can love we can believe and we too can be successful beyond all expectations--if we only dare to hope.
