A central part of the series takes place in modern times and details the complex mother-daughter relationship between Lily and Alice. Lily is fifteen and is upset that her mother will not disclose information about her biological father despite her constant pleading. At the same time, Lily grows tired of her mother's bad choice of boyfriends and resents her constant drinking. To avoid the fighting she decides to break away from her mother for a few months. Alice continues to move through various relationships until one of her friends gifts her a beautiful silver box.
The Wild Birds weaves together various characters and stories over time. They are all interesting and it's fun to watch the connections evolve. This beautifully written novel is a debut by Emily Strelow and I look forward to more works from this author.
