about

A grieving woman on a dying planet confronts her life and the men who populate it. At once intimate and sprawling, this book is an examination of the stories we are told--and the stories we tell ourselves--about identity, permanence, and love in our beautiful, hostile world.

-----------------

"A heartbreaker of a debut."
-Buzzfeed Books

"A slim book that packs a powerful philosophical punch."
-Heavy Feather Review

"Contrary to what the title of her debut suggests, Lindsay Lerman comes from experience, every line dripping with dark humor and honesty. We may not live on this earth long enough to fully understand reality's complexities and contradictions but books like I'M FROM NOWHERE act like anchors, breadcrumbs to carry us through the despair."
-Michael J. Seidlinger, author of Dreams of Being

"I'M FROM NOWHERE will echo through the walls of your heart for a lifetime."
-McKenna Clarke, author of My Safe Word is Harder

"Devastating insight into feminine consciousness unbound."
-Charlene Elsby, author of Hexis
