An accordion wheezing to life in a destroyed city. A daisy-patterned dress in a raided closet. A series of unopened notes on a daughter's windowsill. A teddy bear in a hurriedly dug grave. These are roadmarks on Bailey Bridgewater's A Map of Safe Places, a collection of four stories about the fragile connections between people. With gentle and poignant writing, Bridgewater shows us the importance of having empathy and compassion for the most vulnerable members of our society, and what we--and our children--lose when the powerful demand that we turn away from each other instead.
