Bo is mourning her mother, her artistic drive and her home as she once knew it. Still, when her 130-year-old neighbor, Mia, slips a note under her door that reads, “I need help,” Bo answers the call. What follows is a tender, sweeping meditation on care, connection and art’s power to transmit meaning, even at the end of the world.<h3>Meet Susanna Kwan</h3>Susanna Kwan is an artist and writer from San Francisco. Her work has been supported by fellowships from Kundiman, Storyknife, Oak Spring Garden Foundation and Vanderbilt University. Awake in the Floating City is her first novel. She teaches writing with The Dream Side.
