When I Crossed No-Bob

(2) 4-6 In this companion to How I Found the Strong, Addy's mother abandons her at a wedding. Addy ingratiates herself with the newlyweds, and things seem to be turning around until her dirtball pappy returns. Addy tells her tale in an ingenuous present tense, her keen observations providing the information readers need about her frame of reference within this post-Civil War setting.
