Round Rock (Vintage Contemporaries series) by Michelle Huneven
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.9 MB
Overview: In a small town among the citrus groves in the Santa Bernita Valley, so the locals claim, nothing ever goes according to plan. "It’s a great place to live, they say, if you like surprises: it’s just like life, only different."
Certainly a number of Rito’s inhabitants–fewer than a hundred in all–are surprised to be living here. Red Ray, for instance, a wildly alcoholic lawyer who bought a dilapidated Victorian mansion in an attempt to rehabilitate his marriage and regain the affections of his wife and young son. After destroying those hopes with a spectacular final binge, Red established a drunk farm, Round Rock, on the ruins. There, one day at a time, he follows his new, unexpected calling.
Many months after her husband decamped (almost immediately) for Los Angeles, Libby Daw still lives alone in their trailer, and finds herself even more rooted to the valley she dreams of escaping.
And there’s Lewis Fletcher, a sometime graduate student whose keen intelligence is sorely tested by his erratic behavior and current predicament. Without exactly knowing why, and entirely against his wishes–or by default and sheer good luck–he finds himself placed in Ray’s care at Round Rock.
