The Language of Sycamores

Author: Lisa Wingate

Karen Sommerfield has always felt out of place in her fast-paced corporate world. When a family crisis forces her to take a leave of absence, she finds herself drawn to the small Missouri town of her childhood. There, amidst the gentle rhythms of rural life, Karen rediscovers the healing power of nature and family. As she tends to her ailing grandmother and reconnects with old friends, Karen begins to question the path she’s chosen. With lyrical prose and heartfelt insights, Wingate weaves a tale of self-discovery and second chances that will resonate long after the final page.

Sometimes the things we think we want are the things that will kill us.
