Summary
In this collection of short stories, Lauren Groff brings the reader into a physical world that is at once domestic and wild - a place where the hazards of the natural world lie waiting to pounce, yet the greatest threats and mysteries are still of an emotional, psychological nature. The stories span characters, towns, decades, even centuries, but Florida - its landscape, climate, history and state of mind - becomes its gravitational centre: an energy, a mood, as much as a place of residence. Groff pinpoints the moments and decisions and connections behind human pleasure and pain, hope and despair, love and fury - the moments that make us alive
