"Southern Fiction with a machete" is how Wright describes the book. It's a compelling story that will have you eagerly turning the pages to see what happens next.Dark yet humorous, Mother will have you in tears one minute and laughing the next. Mother, the first book in the trilogy and the story from the mother's point of view, is the tale of a mother's struggles in trying to help her daughter cope with mental illness and the roller-coaster ups and downs of the impact of that illness on herself, family and friends. This story is not for the faint of heart. This is M. H. Wright's first novel. Advance Praise for Mother: "Mother is a painful yet inspiring book to read. It reminded me of my own story. It is a story of resilience, perseverance, and leadership of a protective mother. When I read it, it opened up the layers of disappointments in my life. At the same time, it healed the wound inside me. This is a powerful story. I command you to read it."-- Henry Gold, An International Best-Selling Author. www.thelimitlesslife.com "Mother is one mother ___-ing great book! I couldn't put it down, except to grab another box of tissues. What a wild ride! This book made me laugh and cry. It's dark but in a true Southern manner and in a way that any family can relate to."- Stephanie W., Yucatan, Mexico"Our Southern Trinity: Mother is a remarkable debut by M.H. Wright. Starting with a woman on the cracked mirror, Wright takes the reader through a journey of life where no one is perfect, parenting is complicated and failure is real. She has created characters so relatable, that you often put down the book in moments of self-reflection. We all know someone who has dealt with abuse, illness, and controlling people. I wanted to love and hate the main character, scream at her for the obvious coping mechanisms she applies and at the same time hug her tight and root for her success. Well written in a brilliant and unapologetic style, this book examines the aspects of cultural and social influences that finally contributes to who we are. Kudos to M.H. Wright for this brave attempt. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a good read and a realistic story."- Namii Muthu, Atlanta, GA"Author M.H. Wright can truly write! This is dark Southern fiction at its finest. From Georgia to Mexico, Mother will have you reeling every step of the way, with the trials and tribulations of life as the mother to a girl bent on destruction at any cost and daughter to an Old South matriarch."- Lori A. Manns, Atlanta, GA, www.lorimanns.com "This is my first experience with dark Southern fiction and M.H. Wright did not disappoint. The book immediately captures you and dangles the question "what happened?" with every sentence as you dive deeper into the psychological darkness brewing deep within the mind of the main character."- Milton Brown, Speaker and Best-Selling Author, www.miltonbrown.org "Wow! Make sure you set aside time when you pick up this book, because you won't want to put it down. It is beautifully written and I feel like I was in every scene, invisible to the characters, but I can see, hear and feel their ups and downs. I was at the doctor's office, in the court room, and in the car ride to and from. That's how captivating it is. This book will help others who struggle with abuse and mental illness; I hope it encourages all to stand up and speak up."- Lashea Cavers, entrepreneur, www.lasheacavers.com Charlotte, NC
