A 1995 ALA Best Book for Young Adults. Author: M. E. Kerr Publication Date: September 1995 Paperback.
Told by her brother Parr, this is the story of 18-year-old Evie, her Missouri farm family, and the turmoil created by Evie's love for the local banker's daughter. "Teens will be swept up in the emotion and immediacy of Parr's fast-paced narrative, his voice perfectly pitched between wit and melancholy. It's a story that challenges stereotypes, not only about love, but also about farmers and families and religion and responsibility--about all our definitions of 'normal.'"--BL. "Unquestionably, this is the best Kerr in years, if not ever."--V.Tags: Lesbian Fiction, Lesbian Young Adult, Coming Of Age, Lesbian Coming of Age.
