Departures — Elizabeth Oness

Three troubled sisters--Pagan, suffering from a difficult pregnancy; Prana, devastated by the breakup of her long-time love affair with a married man; and Zhikr, the reluctant caretaker of her soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend's daughters--find their already complicated lives taking a new turn when their mother, the stable presence in their lives, disappears, leaving word that she will be out of the country. By the award-winning author of Articles of Faith. Original.
