The Pure Life: A Novel

0/5 ( ratings)

"

If character is fate, The Pure Life paints
the connection between who we are and
what we do, and shows that everyday
living, filled as it is with our inadvertent
and deliberate actions, has consequence.
After college graduation, Jackson Dean
heads for the Pacific Northwest to build
trails with the California Conservation
Corps. He finds himself on a crew
alongside Marcus, a young, streetwise
Othello, Rebecca, an aspiring artist, Desiree, a privileged
dropout, and Bane, a mercurial figure who seems to operate in
the shadows of the experience. The work is labor intensive,
and the outward journey, inward. Jackson and Rebecca fall
for each other but immediately face an indefinite separation.
And, when Marcus gets a call from his old gang, Bane's
machinations implicate Jackson, Rebecca
and Desiree in a subtle intrigue that leaves
each of them facing stark choices between
loyalty and pride, loss and love."
