 Margo Rabb"If she dies, I'll die," are the words 15-year-old Mia Perlman writes in her journal the night her mother is diagnosed with cancer. Nine days later, Mia's mother is dead, and Mia, her older sister, and her father must find a way to live on in the face of sudden, unfathomable loss. But even in grief, there is the chance for new beginnings in Cures for Heartbreak, Rabb's poignant, funny, and hopeful novel. Rabb grew up in Queens, New York and now lives in Austin. Her stories have been broadcast on National Public Radio and have been published in the Atlantic Monthly, Zoetrope, Seventeen, Best New American Voices, New England Review, and elsewhere.
