Bats: A Novel

Autor Cathie Smith Keenan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 mar 2021
Short book description: BATS is an unlikely love story set in a small New England town. It is the tale of misfits of differing sizes and shapes. Jean Woodland has lived her entire life in Derby but never quite fit in. Socially awkward, she has always been an outsider, unable or unwilling to identify with her neighbours or her students. Mylo, the handsome guy who bags groceries at the local market, lives on the margins of society in a residence for disabled adults. Disarmingly friendly and kind, he makes Jean feel distinctly uncomfortable, but she finds his deep-seated desire to help impossible to deflect. Then there are the bats. Discoveries follow. A bat colony on the brink of extinction. A land development company with fifty more houses to build. The thrill of activism. Next-door neighbours whose livelihood depends on the development. Raising three children, the family have enough problems. A town grapples with the forces of development and conservation. Jean discovers feelings she never knew she had. Daring to do something amazing, Jean and Mylo embark on a road trip in a vintage Airstream. What begins with a sense of promise, quickly degenerates into something neither can navigate. Or can they?
