About the book

"Story of Sonia Kurisu, a streetwise young mother, lounge singer, and artist who single-handely struggles to raise her child, Sonny Boy. In vivid sequences alternating between the past and the present, we learn of Sonia's childhood; her abandonment by her father and mother; her own abandonment of the church; her contentious relationship with her sister, Celeste; her string of bad lovers; her problems with drugs and alcohol and of her wish to reconcile with her father and make something of her life by being a good parent to her son, who has begun to show signs of developmental problems."--Jacket.
