Publisher's Summary

In this moving, poignant novel by the best-selling author of Birds of America, we share a grown woman's bittersweet nostalgia for the wildness of her youth.

The summer Berie was 15, she and her best friend, Sils, had jobs at Storyland in upstate New York where Berie sold tickets to see the beautiful Sils portray Cinderella in a strapless evening gown. They spent their breaks smoking, joking, and gossiping. After work they followed their own reckless rules, teasing the fun out of small-town life, sleeping in the family station wagon, and drinking borrowed liquor from old mayonnaise jars. But no matter how wild, they always managed to escape any real danger - until the adoring Berie sees that Sils really does need her help - and then everything changes.

A Poignant Portrait of Girlhood

Such a sad, true and honest rendering of how in one’s inner life, there is often a dissonance with our outer projection.

This book will stay with me for a very long time.
