Florida / Lauren Groff.

Groff, Lauren, (author.).

Summary:

The stories in this collection span characters, towns, decades, even centuries, but Florida - its landscape, climate, history, and state of mind - becomes the gravitational center: an energy, a mood, as must as a place of residence. Groff transports us, then jolts us alert with a crackle of wit, a wave of sadness, a flash of cruelty, as she writes about loneliness, rage, family, and the passage of time.
