<p><b>**FINALIST FOR THE BARNES &amp; NOBLE DISCOVER PRIZE**</b><br><b>**LONGLISTED FOR THE VCU CABELL FIRST NOVEL AWARD**</b><br><b>**NATIONAL BOOK FOUNDATION 5 UNDER 35 HONOREE**</b><br><b>**FINALIST FOR THE 38TH ANNUAL PUBLISHING TRIANGLE AWARDS' EDMUND WHITE AWARD FOR DEBUT FICTION**</b><br><br>Ruth's life changes the day she stands in line with her mother to buy a new school uniform - and sees another girl and her aunt turned away, unable to afford one. The girl, Maria, meets Ruth's stare without shame, and from that moment, Ruth can't stop thinking about her.<br><br> When school begins, and they turn out to be the only two girls attending on scholarship, Ruth musters the courage to introduce herself. A friendship forms - not by choice, but by something stronger. Ruth is drawn into Maria's orbit, always circling: never too close, never quite able to pull away.<br><br> As they grow up like sisters, attend the same college, and eventually move to 1990s New York to chase dreams in the art world, the bond between them begins to buckle under the weight of ambition and rivalry. Their lives continue to converge and diverge - until they meet in one final and momentous confrontation.</p>
