Sonya used to perform on stage. She attended glamorous parties, dated handsome men, rode in fast cars. But somewhere along the way, the stage lights Sonya lived for dimmed to black. In their absence, came darkness-blackouts, empty cupboards, hazy nights she could not remember. Haunted by her failed career and lingering trauma from her childhood, Sonya fell deep into an alcoholic abyss. What kept her from losing herself completely was Tommy, her son. But her love for Tommy rivaled her love for the bottle. Addiction amplified her fear of losing her child; every maternal misstep compelled her to drink. Tommy's precious life was in her shaky hands. Eventually Sonya was forced to make a choice. Give up drinking or lose Tommy-forever. Bright Burning Things is an emotional tour-de-force-a devastating and nuanced look at an addict's journey towards rehabilitation and redemption. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Single mothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mother and child $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Conflict of generations $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women alcoholics $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Electronic books. 651 0 $a Ireland $v Fiction. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/14027770?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/hpc_9780063097179_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206012218.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=417ED400940511EE938C1F5A49ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
