I wouldn’t have sought this out if it hadn’t been put on my radar as an NBA finalist, so thank you, National Book Award, for shining a light on this. Groff gives us brief glimpses into various lives, often focusing on women who are navigating family issues and exhaustion and a pervasive sense of something being slightly off. While not all of the stories are set in Florida, there’s always some kind of link, and the place almost becomes a character in its own right. Incisive and evocative and unsettling in a very satisfying way.
Geoff herself narrates the audio version.
