Mom CampAuthor(s): Vronique Darwin\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Assembly Press, Canada\nImprint: Assembly Press\nISBN-13: 9781998336319, 978-1998336319\nSynopsis\nA debut collection of interconnected fiction that delivers a frothy, philosophical take on modern female archetypes.\n\nIn elementary school math, she was given a worksheet with six connected squares in the shape of a T, so she drew one girl in each box. When Jeanne was told to cut around the shape, and fold and tape the squares into one cube, she couldnt decide whether to keep the girls outside, looking away from each other, or trapped inside, looking in. Her solution was to rip it up and eat the pieces. The six characters have lived inside her ever since.\n\nAn unnamed woman retreats to sort herself into the various roles she has played (Sister, Friend, Server, Lover); another woman, Jeanne, checks into a hotel-turned-escape room empty-handed. These parallel narratives lead a parade of interconnected stories and a novel.
