Objects of My Affection

By Jill Smolinski

Lucy Bloom has hit rock bottom. Broke and freshly dumped by her boyfriend, she is forced to sell her house so she can afford her 19-year-old son's drug rehab. She puts her organizing strengths to good use as she lands a gig helping a reclusive painter, Marva Meier Rios, clear the debilitating clutter from her home. It's a story of hoarding, buried secrets, and learning to let go for a new chance at life and love.
