A Pontiac in the Woods (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578717920)

Jamie Sasso finds herself alone, with no family or home. Cast adrift by a distant cousin in another state, she finds she cannot tolerate her county's foster care program. But where can she live, how can she feed herself, and in what way can she plan her future? Will she even have a future? A PONTIAC IN THE WOODS explores those issues and raises meaningful questions about them. With the help of a social worker, Mr. Santa, Misha, a young man she meets at a dance, and her school's track coach she begins to find her way. But the way is never smooth. More important she cannot find for sure where that way will lead. This is a young woman's rude, sometimes primitive narrative that packs a surprising punch.
