The day Roe v. Wade was overturned, Amber Stewart was watching her first tomato plants sprout in her brand new garden. A year and a half later, she and her wife had left America entirely.

In the Garden: An Almanac for Uprooting is a lyrical memoir-in-essays about exile, belonging, and the stubborn act of planting a life somewhere new - this time, in Montevideo, Uruguay, an unexpected haven for queer Americans in exile.

Stewart, Amber: - Amber Stewart was born and raised in Nashville, TN, by parents who barely tolerated country music. After eight years in New York -- where she earned a B.F.A. in Writing from Pratt Institute and an M.S.Ed. from Long Island University -- she returned to Nashville, where she completed an M.A. in English at Belmont University, bought a house, planted a garden, and started fertility treatments. Then Tennessee's legislature made it clear her family wasn't welcome anymore. She and her wife Jamie left Nashville for Montevideo, Uruguay in January 2024, where she is the founder and editor of Unbordered Magazine, a literary publication documenting the stories of Americans living outside the United States. In the Garden: An Almanac for Uprooting is her debut book.
