Boundless

When you have become no one, how do you become someone again?

Carolyn Dawn Flynn thought she had the answer. As an author, magazine journalist, and single mother of twins, she was sure of her path. But with her twins eagerly casting their college choices to anywhere-but-here, and the newspaper industry in a death spiral, her life was on a collision course with an uncertain future. Clearly, it was time for a road trip.

Flynn takes a media job two thousand miles away, dismantles the twins' childhood home, and bids a (merciful!) farewell to the mom-van. She moves from the high desert mesa of New Mexico to the healing waters of Saratoga Springs, New York. Within weeks, the dream unravels, leaving Flynn searching for a way to find home-or perhaps create a new home entirely.

In BOUNDLESS, Flynn reimagines the empty nest, turning her keen insight and signature poetic voice to the deeper questions about the stages of women's lives. Set at the intersection of youthful coming-of-age and the vanishing horizon of middle age, BOUNDLESS offers powerful questions about what it means to become-and ultimately provides a road map for recovering emotional agility.
