Description:
Watergate is breaking news, but at the Prairie Bluff boarding ì house in rural Illinois, there are more immediate concerns . . . ì Emma Bovary has arrived unannounced - and distraught - and ì Anne-Marie and her daughter Penny have wrenched themselves from ì the television coverage to attend to their new guest. But if ì there's one rule at Prairie Bluff, it's never meddle in the lives ì of the Heroines, however cruel the destinies to which they are ì bound. There's nothing to be done for poor Emma, immersed in her ì narrative crisis, save for the provision of tea, a tirelessly ì sympathetic ear, and clean linens . . . Adolescent angst isn't a ì patch on beautiful and grief-stricken - and Penny, a moody ì thirteen, knows she's no competition for her mother's attention ì against these ethereal creatures. Hurt and excluded, and ì frustrated by her mother's passivity in the face of Emma's ì terrible fate, Penny strikes out across the prairie to cool her ì hot head. But when she arrives at the forbidden woods, she's in ì no mood to obey her mother's second rule, "never to enter" - and ì soon finds herself in a world of very real heroes and villains, ì an unwilling heroine in her own terrifying story . . .
