Mindy Nichols Wendell
It’s 1935, and tuberculosis is ravaging the nation. When Halle and her mother fall ill, they are sent to the J. N. Adam Hospital, far from home, far from family, far from the world. LIGHT AND AIR deals tenderly and insightfully with isolation, quarantine, found family, and illness. Set in the fully realized world of a 1930s sanatorium, it offers a tender glimpse into a historical epidemic that has become more relatable than ever due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As Halle vows to do whatever it takes to save Mama, a profound message of strength, hope, and healing emerges.
