Summary
Love, loss, irony, and humor abound in the lives of eight families living around Loon Lake, a shallow fishing spot in Northern Michigan. Wells' "use of language is like music," critics says, while others call her writing "a rich and varied drug," and that these stories convey "a real sense of the contradiction and the ambivalence that goes on within the family circle...through writing that has a lyrical style." Whether it's the story of a young dreamer and a bully, a man looking forward to retirement and the family that stands in his way, a teacher facing ethical choices, or a family coping with disaster, these stories delight.
