I'll keep you close / by Jeska Verstegen ; translated by Bill Nagelkerke.

Verstegen, Jeska, (author.). Nagelkerke, Bill, 1958- (translator.).

Summary:

"Jeska doesn't know why her mother keeps the curtains drawn so tightly every day. And what exactly is she trying to drown out when she floods the house with Mozart? What are they hiding from? When Jeska's grandmother accidentally calls her by a stranger's name, she seizes her first clue to uncovering her family's past, and hopefully to all that's gone unsaid....A true story of navigating generational trauma as a child, I'll Keep You Close is about what comes after disaster: how survivors move forward, what they bring with them when they do, and the promise of beginning again while always keeping the past close"--Adapted from cover flap.
