"Rumi poems originally publsihed in The Essential Rumi, translated by Coleman Barks (San Francisco: HarperCollins, 1995)."-- indicia. "A coming-of-age novel in verse set in 1980s Southern California, about a Persian American girl who rides the waves, falls, and finds her way back to the shore Thirteen-year-old Ava loves to surf and to sing. Singing and reading Rumi poems settle her mild OCD, and catching waves with her best friend, Phoenix, lets her fit inher olive skin looks tan, not foreign. But then Ava has to spend the summer before ninth grade volunteering at the hospital, to follow in her single mothers footsteps to become a doctor. And when Phoenixs past lymphoma surges back, not even surfing, singing, or poetry can keep them afloat, threatening Avas hold on the one place and the one person that make her feel like she belongs. With ocean-like rhythm and lyricism, Wave is about a girl who rides the waves, tumbles, and finds her way back to the shore."-- provided by publisher.
