SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Ariel Delgado Dixon\, in conversation with Sam Cohen\, discusses & signs Sourland
DESCRIPTION:A gripping\, propulsive novel about succession\, sex\, and revenge on a California marijuana farm \n“Deliciously written and compulsively readable . . . As the ex-lovers of a missing weed farmer grapple for control of her land and harvest\, they contend with the force of her presence and the complexities of their own pasts.”–Carmen Maria Machado\, author of In the Dream House and Her Body and Other Parties \nSapphire and her farm\, Sourland\, are fixtures of Northern California’s rugged wilderness\, offering refuge to rejects\, rebels\, and outcasts–anyone willing to work and learn. But the haven Sapphire has built is fractured when she suddenly goes missing\, her scorched truck abandoned on a mountain road. \nFrankie\, a disgraced ballerina and Sapphire’s former girlfriend and right-hand woman\, returns to Sourland\, claiming ownership of the farm. When she arrives\, Frankie finds that Fizz–Sapphire’s most recent lover\, an ex-baseball player with a preternatural green thumb–has already begun prepping Sourland for its biggest harvest yet. \nAs the two grapple for power\, the farm’s fate hangs in the balance\, and with it\, the future Fizz and Frankie each covet for themselves. Past demons and scorned admirers remain hauntingly close\, while the specter of Sapphire looms over the farm: in cryptic notes\, in bud-tender gossip\, in every blade of grass and whorl of smoke. \nA brilliantly constructed novel of desire and betrayal\, Sourland sparkles with the beauty and grime of the California woods. Dixon’s novel warns that our true nature catches up to us all–no matter how far we run.
