Vikki Warner – författare

A heartfelt coming-of-age memoir about taking the unbeaten path, owning a home, and holding it all—including yourself—together.Detouring from the traditional timeline of marriage-kids-house, twenty-six-year-old Vikki Warner skips straight to homeownership. She buys a downtrodden three-story house in Providence, Rhode Island, and suddenly finds herself responsible for a rotating cast of colorful tenants. Adulthood comes with unforeseen challenges: backed-up sewage, gentrification, global economic downturn. A candid portrait of how sharing space profoundly reshapes our lives, and forces us to grow into ourselves."Forget the marriage plot; 26-year-old Warner is after a plot of land….
