How does a girl learn to love herself when she feels like the shadow in her mother’s life?
Clara grows up in a small Bavarian village where silence and duty keep things in order. But whispers travel fast. The close-knit community senses that Clara’s story holds something that does not sit easily with their values.
Clara doesn’t look like her radiant, blonde mother. She doesn’t move through the world with the same ease and openness. She feels out of place.
As Clara comes of age, the unanswered questions surrounding her identity shape her friendships and weigh heavily on her first love. She becomes determined to uncover the truth: who her father is, and why he was never part of her life.
Spanning decades and reaching from rural Germany to Canada, Sierra Clara is an intimate, clear-eyed novel about inherited patterns and the courage it takes to step beyond the roles society writes for us.
A story of a mother and daughter breaking cycles of dependency and quietly reshaping the world they were given.
Nominated for the community award on the German reader's platform LovelyBooks in 2022.
