by Mary E. McKnight (Author)
For fans of coming-of-age narratives and feminist journeys, an empowering tale of one teen's quest to establish her own voice as an Army Brat living in Cold War-era West Germany.
Relocated with her family to Cold War-era West Germany, Army Brat and middle sister of three Mary grapples with the torment exacted by her older sister, the high moral expectations of her military father, and societal pressure to conform to traditional gender roles during the rise of the feminism movement. Through the transformative power of place, travel, and the people she encounters, Mary embarks on a journey of self-discovery, learning about social justice and finding her voice in a world still shaped by male dominance. Rich with historical context, Out of Place is a poignant and compelling exploration of identity, personal growth, and the enduring strength that comes from embracing one's purpose.Author Biography
