A Small Life is a captivating journey through the beautiful and varied Chilean landscape, following women who seem to be living “a small life” and yet, armed only with grit and values, they overcome great losses and forge ahead to strive for a better life. Agata, a Catholic nun, finds the infant, Lilia, abandoned at a foundling wheel. She and a resolute social worker, Señora Alvarez, do everything they can to help Lilia survive and thrive. They travel different paths, but their lives, unbeknownst to them, are inextricably interwoven, demonstrating that every life, no matter how small, is significant. The musically gifted Lilia finds love with an Italian self-made man, but things are not always as they appear.

“Magical. With intelligent and graceful prose reminiscent of Alice Hoffman, Roxanne Z. Kind emerges as a female voice worthy of our attention. Her characters come to life so vividly and fiercely. Yet, Ms. Kind takes you by the hand and lovingly walks you through this tale of three disparate women, who, once upon time, touched and changed one another’s small lives forever.”
—Sara Wood, Actor/Director/Producer/Founder of Actors Space West
“Roxanne Z. Kind’s A Small Life had me enthralled from the very first paragraph. It is a magically beautiful recounting of her family lore, drawn with nuances that, imagined or otherwise, seem both real and mystical. It is a novel, a history, and a poem all combined.”
—Gila Zalon, Screenwriter/Film Producer
