Synopsis:
Cassie O’Malley has spent her whole life trying to keep her
head above water—literally and metaphorically. It’s been two-and-a-half years
since her mother dumped Cassie in a mental institution against her will, and
now, at eighteen, she enrolls in college, ready to reclaim her life and enter
the world on her own terms.
But
as she struggles to find her way forward, the startling truths she uncovers
about her own family narrative make it impossible to cut the tethers of a
tumultuous past. And when the unhealthy mother-daughter relationship that
defined Cassie's childhood and adolescence threatens to pull her under once
again, Cassie must decide: whose version of history is the truth? And more
important, whose life must she save?
A
bold, literary story about the fragile complexities of mothers and daughters
and learning to love oneself, The First Time She Drowned reminds
us that we must dive deep into our pasts if we are ever to move forward.
