Сравнить цены на книгу: Don’t Let My Baby Do Rodeo (Fishman Boris); Pushkin Press, 2016

‘You’re the mother. You will raise him as you see fit. But I want to ask you for one thing… Please don’t let my baby do rodeo.’

Eight-year-old Max has gone missing. Again. His behaviour is a mystery to Maya and Alex, his Russian immigrant parents who adopted him as a baby in America. He has started wandering away from home, talking to wild animals, eating grass, and refusing to sleep in a bed. Can they really raise this feral child?

Their uneasy marriage has tamed Maya’s free spirit – but when Max is found after his most recent disappearance, she insists that they all drive from New Jersey to the boy’s native Montana, to reconnect with his biological family. Maybe it will help them understand his mother’s cryptic message?

Don’t Let My Baby Do Rodeo is a beautifully nuanced and poignant novel about adoption, married love, and what it means to truly belong.
