We are gathered here
Two heroines challenge the constraints against women in 1880s New York State. One is Regina, whose epilepsy makes her an outcast in society, the other is Olive, a miner's wife hired to look after her. The pair share adventures that take them into alternative societies of Adirondack women: gypsy camps, a madhouse, and a commune of renegade Shaker women. A first novel.
The air we breathe: a novel
Detached from the rest of the country on the eve of World War I, the tuberculosis-stricken residents of an Adirondack lakeside sanatorium are housed in accordance with their economic status and languish in their isolation before an enterprising patient initiates a weekly discussion group.
