{"product_id":"9781681140032","title":"Secrets of Gray Lake","description":"Journalist Jenna Harris strives to write her way out of a quaint Great Lakes town and onto the staff of a major newspaper. The town and its people tug back-with old secrets, an endearing ethnic culture, and a lively group of 20-somethings sorting out life in the wake of the loose and experimental 1970s.\u003cp\u003e\"Secrets of Gray Lake is a haunting story that creates its own half-familiar, half-exotic world in a small town in a 'far, cold corner of Pennsylvania.' Heroine Jenna is a features writer whose personal investigations take place in a world not absolutely fit for print, at any rate not in a small town newspaper. Drawn to a house-next-door of free-wheeling young people and their charismatic leader, Jenna is drawn into a life that skims the edge of sexual and nautical adventure. How much and how dangerously the history of the lake infuses its present is a secret that may never be adequately understood, but its pursuit makes for a story of recurrent and illuminating surprises.\" -Janet Burroway, Writing Fiction, Losing Tim\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Excellent storytelling: warmhearted, intelligent, strict yet conversational. I love the growing sense of connections between all these people. Rebecca has that necessary fiction writer's credo deep in ​her​ blood-that a story comes from relationships between characters, not from just the characters themselves. The details are wonderful and made me laugh many times, but also just paint a beautiful, new, fresh, visionary sense of life.\" -Rebecca Lee, author of Bobcat and other Stories.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anaphora Literary Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038820188400,"sku":"9781681140032","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781681140032_p0.jpg?v=1763692146","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781681140032","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
