“[Jacqueline St. Joan] brings to her story what she brought to the law, a conviction that life is full of both struggle and purpose and that grace comes to us when we have no reason to expect it."
--Dorothy Allison, author of the critically acclaimed Bastard Out of CarolinaMy Sisters Made of Light follows three generations of a Pakistani family as they make their way through life in the political, social, and religious maze that is their motherland. This novel pulls readers into the fascinating, heartbreaking, and often terrifying world of honor crimes against women in Pakistan through the life and family history of Ujala. Ujala decides to follow the path for which her mother has prepared her and pushes aside fears for her own safety to help other women escape from the impossible situations in which they find themselves.

“Using dark arts of incantation and understatement, Isabel Zuber makes poems that draw us into their spaces—allusive stories of Thens, Nows and Nevers, haunted by spirits of Always.”
— Sarah Lindsay, National Book Award Finalist and author of Twigs and Knucklebones"Isabel Zuber's poems are like last night's dreams—familiar and mysterious. Like dreams, they are short and last forever. When I awake from them, I feel comforted."
— Emily Herring Wilson, author of Becoming Elizabeth Lawrence: Discovered Letters of a Southern GardenerPress 53 Best Sellers, July 2010
