By the author of Not Fade Away and Fup, Stone Junction is a bravura act of storytelling, both a high adventure that spans the decades from Haight-Ashbury to 1980s New York, and a parable about the powers within us all.
Annalee Pearce is a pregnant 16-year-old who has been placed in a corrective centre run by nuns for refusing to co-operate with authorities. Once in there, she soon rebels, breaks a sister's jaw with a "roundhouse right" and, when her son Daniel is born, she steals away into the rain.
"Here is American storytelling as tall as it is broadly imagined and deeply felt, exuberant with outlaw humor and honest magic. Reading Stone Junction is like being at a nonstop party in celebration of everything that matters."-Thomas Pynchon
