The birthing tree : a novel
Peters, Amanda2026
Book
Aliet is living a quiet life in the city while she grapples with a personal tragedy that has shaped her adulthood. She works as a nurse, administering modern medicine while still holding her grandmother's teachings and stories dear, tucked beside memories of the tree that once welcomed new life. But when her grandmother passes away suddenly, grief-stricken Aliet understands that she must return to the tree: it is only these roots that can help her reconnect with her heritage, and discover long-buried secrets about herself. Sweeping and intimate, spanning decades, 'The Birthing Tree' follows one woman's journey to protect her land, her traditions, and the memory of the women who came before her, as she decides which parts of her inheritance she will carry into the future.
