Yesteryear

Caro Claire Burke

Tradwife influencer Natalie Heller Mills sells raw milk, sourdough, and a pioneer life on Idaho's Yesteryear Ranch — nannies, producers, and industrial ovens safely off-camera. Then she wakes in what seems to be 1855: no electricity, children she does not recognize, and a husband who is suddenly competent and cruel. Caro Claire Burke's debut is a satirical thriller about fame, faith, and the performance of womanhood, told in two timelines that refuse to let the feed stay pretty.

“My name is Natalie Heller Mills, and I was perfect at being alive.”
