I wonder if anyone else has read this book or would have any idea of how I can find it. I have no idea what it is called or who wrote it! The book about a woman who one day decides to leave her family and go to live in an old cottage in the country and live by herself, off the land as much as possible. It is about her experiences on her own and how she manages. Things I remember from the book are that she cut her own hair after several years of just letting it grow wild and she had no mirrors so had no idea how bad she looked, she bought old furniture, never went into town , that kind of thing. After many years her daughter who was now grown up found her and went to visit and talk to her about how hurt she was that her mother left. That's most of what I can remember, I read the book when I was only a teenager but it has stuck in my mind all these years and I would love to read it again, I just have no idea how on earth I am going to find it. Any suggestions?

Maybe go to Barnes and Nobel and talk to one of the
older clerks and tell them the story Maybe she will remember
it. I am older and i haven't heard of it.. OR maybe the library.

you're real. The e book is by potential of Martha Alexander and it rather is titled whilst the recent toddler Comes, i'm shifting Out. It substitute into revealed in long island in 1979 by potential of Dial Books for youthful Readers. Oliver is starting to be a brilliant brother, and is dreading the advent of his new sibling. He will become offended and jealous and threatens to flow away his mom. inspite of the undeniable fact that, she is able to cajole him that he's enjoyed and mandatory at domicile.

Retrace your steps to 25 years ago. I'm guessing you should find it in about 25 years.
