An Odyssey of Ashes

Odyssey of Ashes traces the offbeat and aching pilgrimage of a young woman caught in the undertow of grief and existential unraveling. Reeling from the death of her estranged father, she embarks on a raw, ash-scattering road trip; equal parts eulogy and escape. With wit sharpened by sorrow and a longing for something more than survival, she stumbles through deserts, diners, and dead ends in search of meaning, connection, and a place to finally set something down.At once lyrical and unsentimental, this debut is a meditation on memory, misattunement, and the crooked, often darkly funny path toward becoming whole.
