A wonderful book!

I once used this book for a class on the contemporary novel and the students loved it. When it was released it received terrific reviews from the critics, and rightfully so. It's a terrific coming-of-age story, written lyrically and with unforgettable characters. Cora will go down as one of the most delightful and sympathetic portraits written in contemporary fiction. An absolutely wonderful read! This novel deserves to be back in print.
