Sun Shining on Morning Snow is a fearless and deeply moving memoir that celebrates the power of authenticity, love, and resilience. Ingrid Hu Dahl, a mixed-race, queer woman, takes readers on an intimate journey through the challenges of self-discovery—navigating the weight of social, cultural, and familial expectations. From her rebellious early days as a touring musician to her groundbreaking work in the rock and roll camp for girls’ movement, Ingrid’s story is one of courage, defiance, and empowerment. She fights to carve out space for herself and others, embracing her truth despite the pressures that seek to silence her. Through love, loss, and an unbreakable connection to the fierce women before her, especially her mother, she ultimately finds reconciliation and the strength to live boldly in her identity. In grief, she discovers not just sorrow but also a deeper understanding of love, memory, and the invisible threads that connect past and present.
At once lyrical and badass, Sun Shining on Morning Snow is a testament to the radical act of being seen on your terms. Perfect for readers seeking inspiration, representation, and the courage to step fully into their own light, this memoir is a rallying cry for anyone who has ever struggled to claim their place in the world.
