description: On September 11, 2001, far from either New York or Washington, Tess DeNunzio loses her three-year-old sister to a hit-and-run driver. With the eyes of the world elsewhere, Tess's family reels into an impenetrable silence. Dear Zoe is her attempt to break that silence. Part love letter, part coming-of-age story, part confession, Tess's story lets us eavesdrop on the intimate conversations that force her to articulate her loss, confront her guilt, and, ultimately, confirm the healing power of love.
