You may come from broken people. You have a legacy to define. Begin.

Simone is a therapist who has spent twenty years helping other people understand their childhoods. She is very good at it. She is less good at her own.

When her stepfather Clifton dies, Simone organises the funeral from a list of twenty-three items. She does it for a man who spent her childhood sending her out of rooms.

She does it because she is always the one who sees what needs doing and does it. She does it hoping, at forty-three years old, that this final act of love will be the thing that makes him see her.

You cannot be seen by a dead man.

What Simone finds instead, in a small unmarked folder among Clifton's belongings, is a secret that reframes everything she thought she understood about him, about her mother, about the long chain of people whose damage arrived in her life before she had the language to name it.

MADE FROM THIS is a novella about the people who broke us and the people who broke them. It is about a twelve-year-old boy who raised five siblings and sealed himself up so thoroughly against loss that he spent the rest of his life losing things. It is about a woman who went to a dance at twenty-three and decided, with her whole mind open, to love a complicated man. It is about two daughters of the same absent father finding each other across a kitchen table in Montserrat. And it is about what we owe the children who are watching us, right now, learning the shape of love from what they see at close range.

Warm, devastating, and deeply necessary, MADE FROM THIS asks the question most of us spend a lifetime avoiding.

Can you see clearly the people who damaged you, understand why they became who they were, and still choose to do something different?

The answer is yes. But it will cost you.
