"I Am the Cage gives resounding voice to the voiceless." -The Associated Press
"Powerful.″ -Booklist, starred review "Visceral, wrenching, and beautiful." -John Green, #1 bestselling author of Turtles All the Way Down and The Fault in Our Stars
"The sense of powerlessness--and redemption--will stay with you." -Jojo Moyes, #1 bestselling author of We All Live Here and Me Before You Fish Creek, Wisconsin--Beautiful. Quiet. Isolated. Anonymous. It's all that nineteen-year-old Elisabeth needs, and everything she wants. Cloistered in her tiny cabin, Elisabeth is determined to be alone, hiding from her memories and making sure that no one can ever hurt her again. But when a massive snowstorm strikes, plunging the town into darkness, Elisabeth finally allows herself to accept help from her neighbor, Noah, the town's young sheriff. Forced to show him more vulnerability than she ever intended, Elisabeth realizes she can no longer outrun the scars of her childhood, and facing the darkness might be exactly what she needs to let the light in. In a searing own-voices story accented by poignant childhood flashbacks and stunning poetry, Allison Sweet Grant's young adult debut is a quietly powerful portrait of a young woman's journey to confront the medical trauma inflicted to "fix" her--and heal her heart in the process. An emotional coming-of-age story about a young woman running away from herself, yet grasping to find a way back. Deeply moving, authentically raw, and humming with the possibility of a new love.
