Twenty years after her mother’s untidy death, Loli Greene is hired by an almost bankrupt theatre company to travel across the US to teach tired, toxic teenagers to tap into their creative unconscious, so that they might better understand their world at large and the world of their ancestors.
During her no less than challenging travels, Loli taps into her world at large only to uncover secrets about her past that change her imperfect present into what might become her most perfect future. While teaching in a town in the Midwest, she meets a mother and a daughter whose lives she transforms, and whose love transforms her.
In a sometimes raunchy, always entertaining book that is a cross between Fried Green Tomatoes and Zen and the Art of the Motorcycle Maintenance, a woman finally figures out how to navigate her untidy life.
