“Book Descriptions:For fans of Pam Houston’s Cowboys Are My Weakness—a novel in stories about a young woman and her town in the early 1970s.
It is the summer of 1972, and Katie has just turned eighteen. Katie and her town, Elephant Beach, are both on the verge: Katie of adulthood, and Elephant Beach of gentrification. But not yet: Elephant Beach is still gritty, working-class, close-knit.
