My Abandonment, by Peter Rock

For four years, a father and daughter lived in Forest Park. Discovered in 2004, they were relocated to a farm in Yamhill County but disappeared from their new home after only five days. The novel My Abandonment explores, through the daughter’s sincere and unsentimental voice, what she and her father – and their lives together – might have been like. This book delves into themes of alienation, survival and love.
