{"product_id":"adirondack-summer-1969-alan-robert-proctor-9781633917156","title":"Adirondack Summer, 1969","description":"\"In Adirondack Summer, 1969, Alan Proctor has fashioned a marvelous world that invokes nostalgia and realism (and even magical realism) to superb effect. It's a poignant, playful, intensely imagined book, written with grace and good humor and the kind of sentences all writers ache to produce. Highly recommended, whether you went to summer camp or not.\" -Brian Shawver, author of Aftermath and The Language of Fiction. \"I'm a big believer in good first lines to novels, and Alan Proctor grabs you from the first sentence.\" -Frank Higgins, playwright, author of Black Pearl Sings. \"This jewel of a novel ... reminds readers of the vulnerability and gifts of summer .... I fell right into the characters, the setting and the drama ....\" -Denise Low, 2007-2009 Poet Laureate of Kansas, author of Melange Block and Jackalope. \"Alan Proctor's Adirondack Summer, 1969, is a meditation on grief and loss, told with the verve of a John Irving novel. Proctor's vivid sense of place makes the novel's setting-an arts camp in the Adirondacks-a character in its own right. His cast, led by Deidre and Myron Cravitz, weave a gorgeous, often comic, tapestry of their delusions, loves, and dreams. Any reader booking a cabin at Camp Cravitz should prepare to be moved and entertained.\" -Whitney Terrell, author of The Good Lieutenant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Robert Proctor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1633917150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781633917156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Westphalia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.75d","brand":"Alan Robert Proctor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46807014473983,"sku":"9781633917156","price":17.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fd5481e6-0a07-4c0a-8ea3-5f64d2594c0b.jpg?v=1745378316","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/adirondack-summer-1969-alan-robert-proctor-9781633917156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
