Aunt Jimmy's Will

Mabel Osgood Wright

American Literature, Novels

Bird O'More has just lost her father, and now the village is deciding her future. She has no family except a rough-hewn uncle in New York City she's never met. When John O'More arrives to claim his orphaned niece, Bird must leave everything familiar, her father's memory, her artistic dreams, the only life she's known, for a stranger's world. The title hints at inheritance and family secrets that will determine her fate. Will she find belonging in this unlikely household, or will grief and displacement consume her dreams of becoming an artist? This is a tender early 20th-century portrait of resilience, the search for home, and the courage it takes to remake oneself when everything falls apart.
