About this book

Summary

The Cracked Dish is about Marcus, who leaves home with just a duffel bag, a skillet, and a cracked dish that reminds him of his boyhood with his sister Lena. He works long hours in a city full of strangers, burnt coffee, and quiet loneliness. He watches life go by and learns that starting afresh isn't about escaping the past but bringing it with you. Hescapingrd times with letters, short friendships, and little moments of introspection. These remind him that even broken things may have worth. A narrative about family, strength, and paying attention to the little things that make life delicate and worth living.
