Lavanderia de Almas de Marigold, La -Z - by Yoon Jeong-Eun (Paperback)

About the Book

"Born with mysterious powers she does not know how to control, young Jieun accidentally causes her family to vanish. She vows to live a million lives in search of them. Finally, one night, she brings the Marigold Mind Laundry into existence. Its service: to remove the deepest pain from our hearts. Jieun listens while customers share their unhappy memories. As they speak, she transfers their sadness onto T-shirts as stains. After a spin in the washing machine, the stains become flower petals that soar into the air--and Jieun's customers find solace. Five wounded souls come to Jieun for help: a frustrated young filmmaker; a spiraling social media influencer; a mother betrayed by her husband; a woman jilted by her lover; a talented photographer who hides in the saftey of a mundane job. As Jieun listens to each of their stories, she learns that the will to heal is not a rare gift, but a power we all possess--if only we are open to it"--
