A novel about a woman who enters a path of self-discovery after she secures a winning bid on a storage unit?
Author Gayle Brandeis new book is out this month:
"Brandeis writes about a woman who's unique and everyday treasures are bought from the auctions of forgotten and abandoned storage units.
When Flan secures the winning bid on a box filled only with an address and a note inside bearing the word “yes,” she sets out to discover the source of this mysterious message and its meaning. Armed with a well-worn copy of Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass that she turns to for guidance and solace, Flan becomes determined to find the “yes” in her own life. It is an inward journey with outward surprises. When her search draws her toward her Afghan neighbor, convinced that a world of secrets lies beneath the woman’s burqa, Flan’s personal quest unexpectedly enters a more public stage."
Sometimes, clutter leads to self-exploration. We see it everyday.
The book goes on sale January 23, 2007.
