Coles In the Garden: An Almanac for Uprooting at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

The day Roe v. Wade was overturned, Amber Stewart was watching her first tomato plants sprout in her brand new garden. A year and a half later, she and her wife had left America entirely.
In the Garden: An Almanac for Uprooting is a lyrical memoir-in-essays about exile, belonging, and the stubborn act of planting a life somewhere new — this time, in Montevideo, Uruguay, an unexpected haven for queer Americans in exile.

"This is writing that earns its beauty honestly. Like the best spiritual autobiography, it refuses the comfort of resolution. Instead, it offers something rarer: the record of a self, a life, a country, being unmade and then slowly, tenderly, made anew." — Adrian Shirk, author of Heaven is a Place on Earth
"Beautifully captures the heartbreak when home is no longer home. Amber reminds us how to heal as she opens up to the gentle promise of a new culture, learning to live life tranquilo." — Antonia Peplinski, @Wisconsinitos on TikTok
