About the book:
The digital garden on the screen is luminous; improbable plants are cross-bred. A daughter hits rock bottom after her mother’s death. She digs deep into the soil of her childhood garden. Her memory is leaky as a sieve.

But How Can I Cry When The Streets Are Ablaze With Flowers? Is a poetic tale of three generations of women living under the same roof, where the bonds are strong and childhood is free.
