"Tell the World YouOCOre a Wildflower" is a collection of loosely interwoven stories in the voices of southern women and girls of different ages and backgrounds. Beginning with the youngest characters and ending with the oldest, the stories encompass plastic surgery and white supremacists, family secrets and family trees, the United Daughters of the Confederacy and a young writer who describes her work in progress as OC the bastard love-child of William Faulkner and Alice Walker.OCO In "Tell the World YouOCOre a Wildflower, " each character must decide what to tell, whether to tell it, and to whom to tell it. Each struggles with questions of identity and truth, trying to understand who she is and what holds true for her. Some tell their stories plainly, directly, others more obliquely, nesting one within another. Anchored in the tradition of southern storytelling, these women contend with loss, change, and growth while going to church, school, and prison, navigating love and sex, and worrying too much about what people might think. a Yet these women generally refuse to behave, and they wander in and out of each otherOCOs stories just like people do in small towns across the South. Small town lives are always interconnected: your third-grade teacher is your new neighborOCOs aunt and the boy you dated your senior year falls from political grace after being caught in a hot tub with your second cousin. Though they may have had little say in where they were planted, HorneOCOs protagonists nevertheless do their best to bloom. a Rich, multifaceted, and unforgettable, "Tell the World YouOCOre a Wildflower" is the work of a veteran explorer of the twentieth and twenty-first century South. HorneOCOs quest to understand her culture through decades of reading and observing has now yielded these narratives that imaginatively and insightfully enter the hearts and minds of southern women.
