Book: Hey Pickpocket
“Is it possible to leave behind one life and find a new one? This is the provocative question ‘Hey, Pickpocket’ poses, and the result is a deeply felt exploration of grief, redemption, and the human heart. Spanning cultures and continents, foggy mornings on the Arans and hazy memories of the States, Allison Cundiff's debut novel probes the eternal riddle of home, the enduring allure of hope.”
