A daughter crosses continents and calamity in this luminous memoir of becoming. Shaped by migration, family fracture, abandonment, danger, and homelessness, she refuses to let sorrow write her life. Through childhood wonder and heartbreak, rare kindness and hard-won faith, she turns suffering into strength, motherhood into purpose, and survival into renewal. At the heart of her journey is the steadfast love of her father—an anchor through every season, a bond that outlasts distance and loss. Tender yet unflinching, this is a portrait of resilience, forgiveness, and the long return to self, where love endures like moonlight: gentle, constant, and waiting above the dark.
Samar Wales writes intimate biographies and memoirs that trace personal and collective lives.
