A small, devastating story about what it means to be seen.
Foster follows a young girl sent away from her struggling family to live with distant relatives for the summer. What unfolds is not dramatic, but transformative — a slow, gentle awakening to kindness, safety, and the possibility of being loved without conditions.
Claire Keegan writes with extraordinary restraint. Every sentence feels intentional. Every silence carries weight. This is a story about tenderness found in unexpected places, and about how even brief kindness can reshape a life.
Quiet, aching, and unforgettable — Foster is proof that the smallest stories can leave the deepest marks.
