He is preparing feverishly for this role when his fifteen-year-old daughter Angel shows up pregnant on his doorstep.  \nVivid, darkly funny, and beautifully rendered, The Five Wounds spans the baby's first year as five generations of the Padilla family converge: Amadeo's mother, Yolanda, reeling from a recent discovery; Angel's mother, whom Angel isn't speaking to; and Tío Tíve, keeper of the family's history. In the absorbing, realist tradition of Elizabeth Strout and Jonathan Franzen, Kirstin Valdez Quade brings to life the struggles of her characters to parent children they may not be equipped to save.","brand":"Profile Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54250936041816,"sku":"9781788168946","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781788168946__676f475ab31b2.jpg?v=1741158817","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/five-wounds-2","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
