Not From Here

More about the book

"Leah Lax understands that everyone has a story and a secret. To experience this ourselves, we have only to read her utterly irresistible Not from Here." --GLORIA STEINEM "A masterwork! Brilliant, profound, heart-shattering, hopeful - I couldn't breathe! Not From Here is full of stories of people who hang onto hope, people who will not give up struggling for what could be, and it's all interspersed with Leah's own extraordinary journey. This is the kind of book that leaves you forever changed." --CAROLYN LEAVITT, NYTimes bestselling author "An amazing and powerful book of the struggles and triumphs of people from far away who we might have dismissed as 'other, ' except that Leah edges them dexterously into our hearts." --CHIRA DIVAKARUNI, American Book Award winner, author of The Last Queen
