"Postcards from Summer" by Jean Ann Douglass follows the heartfelt journey of Summer, a young woman navigating the complexities of love, loss, and self-discovery. After the sudden death of her mother, Summer finds solace in writing postcards to her, sharing her thoughts and experiences. As she reflects on their relationship and her own aspirations, she embarks on a transformative journey that takes her through various landscapes—both physical and emotional. Each postcard serves as a connection to her past, and as Summer learns to embrace her own identity, she discovers that healing often comes from the unexpected places in life.
