Cucumbers in Heaven

In this intimate, enormously personal memoir, the author, Melissa McKay, guides the reader through a lovingly crafted tale over twenty years in the making: the story of her life. A woman who married her high school sweetheart and raised two children, all while involving herself in her local church community, Melissa takes the time to reflect on her many lived experiences. She details her various struggles and triumphs, from facing family bereavement and trauma, to her long-running battles with depression, to the ups and downs of raising a child on the autism spectrum.

Cucumbers in Heaven spins a touching, inspiring yarn, one of family, of faith and love, of struggling against all odds and still coming out the other side, stronger than ever. With its message of self-love, perseverance, and hope, Melissa's journey is one that is guaranteed to stay with you long after you put it down.
