You Don't Know Who You Are until You've Gone Too Far: Short Stories

A woman unable to face her lover's death, a boy who puts up with and accepts his mother's burning him with curling irons and waffle makers, a young girl who must save her father from a desperate hunter-these are just some of the many characters presented by Leah Holbrook Sackett in You Don't Know Who You Are Until You've Gone Too Far. And, yes, many of them go too far and put up with more than they should, but, almost without fail, each one gains some small understanding, some peace, and is able to move forward even if only by inches. It is that forward movement provides the hope found in the collection.
