Summary
Born on an Iowa farm in 1906, Mary Cromer grows up under the watchful rule of a mother who demands propriety and relentless usefulness.
Intelligent and inwardly defiant, Mary finds refuge in books, poetry, and the private rituals of her imagination. But as adulthood closes in, mental illness and family obligation narrow her choices. As her outer world contracts, her inner life deepens.
Inspired by a real woman and her poetry, The Life of Mary Cromer is a quiet, luminous novel about endurance, attention, and the dignity of an ordinary life.
