Just started reading this. It's a trilogy, each part corresponding to a mother-daughter relationship: Laura Ingalls Wilder and Rose Wilder Lane, Madam C. J. Walker and A'Lelia Walker, and Marie Curie and Irène Joliot-Curie.

Wasn't sure what to expect, but I am enjoying it so far, having read the Wilder/Lane part over dinner. It's from Rose's point of view, and deals with (non)motherhood, (un)reliability of memories, and choosing what to include in a story (which carries a layer of self-reference here, natch, since Atkins is herself picking and choosing what to tell about Wilder and Lane).
