Items related to The Life She Was Given
On a summer evening in 1931, Lilly Blackwood glimpses circus lights from the grimy window of her attic bedroom. She’s never even ventured beyond her narrow room and Momma insists it’s for Lilly’s own protection. People would be afraid if they saw her. But on this unforgettable night, Lilly is taken outside for the first time — and sold to the circus sideshow.

Review:
The Life She was Given is a vibrant maze of desires. The sharp divide between expectations and painful truths, mothers and daughters, past and present, culminate in a sensational finale." - ForeWord Reviews
"Switching back and forth in time and narration from Lilly to Julia, Wiseman (The Plum Tree) has crafted a can't-put-it-down novel of family secrets involving two young girls who only seek to be loved. VERDICT Perfect for book clubs and readers who admired Sara Gruen's Like Water for Elephants." --starred review LIBRARY JOURNAL
