When she falls in love with a beautiful, decrepit house in a hardscrabble neighborhood in Syracuse, she buys it on a whim and flees her suburban life—and her family—as she grapples with how to be a wife, a mother, and a daughter, in a country that is coming apart at the seams. Dana Spiotta's Wayward is a stunning novel about aging, about the female body, and about female difficulty—female complexity—in the age of Trump. Probing and provocative, brainy and sensual, it is a testament to our weird, off-kilter America, to reforms and resistance and utopian wishes, and to the beauty of ruins. Tremendous new work from one of the most gifted writers of her generation. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York :|cKnopf,|d2021. |nRequires OverDrive Read (file size: N/A KB) or Adobe Digital Editions (file size: 1127 KB) or Kobo app or compatible Kobo device (file size: N/A KB) or Amazon Kindle (file size: N/A KB). 650 7 Literature.|2OverDrive 650 17 Fiction.|2OverDrive 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 776 1 |cOriginal|z9780593318737 856 40 |uhttps://naperville.overdrive.com/media/5788330 |zAvailable on OverDrive/Libby 856 42 |3Excerpt|uhttps://samples.overdrive.com/?crid=9f33fbf1- 84c2-4482-983d-b2c1d2fa8573&.epub-sample.overdrive.com |zSample 856 42 |3Image|uhttps://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-100/0111-1/ %7B9F33FBF1-84C2-4482-983D-B2C1D2FA8573%7DImg100.jpg |zLarge cover image 856 42 |3Thumbnail|uhttps://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-200/0111-1/ %7B9F33FBF1-84C2-4482-983D-B2C1D2FA8573%7DImg200.jpg |zThumbnail cover image
