<DIV><B>A humorous journey from &rsquo;80s Manhattan to the wild side of small-town living, from bestselling author Lisa Alther</B><DIV>&#160;</DIV><DIV>Clea Shawn is exhausted by her life: her globe-trotting career as a travel photographer, her successful husband&rsquo;s numerous liaisons, and the unrequited love she feels for her best friend, Elke. She decides to get away from her Manhattan townhouse&mdash;and a city in the throws of the &rsquo;80s&mdash;and move to Roches Ridge, the picturesque Vermont town she visits on a ski trip. Roches Ridge is quiet, sleepy, and seemingly unchanged by the times. But Clea soon discovers this small town has big secrets&mdash;and even bigger characters. From the Don Johnson look-alike who introduces his salon&rsquo;s clientele to punk hairstyles and the band of militant lesbians camped out in Mink Creek to the romance-writing cosmetics saleswoman turned stalker and the strapping hillbilly with a predilection for animal skeleton art, Roches Ridge is livelier than Clea originally thinks. &#160;. . .</DIV><DIV>&#160;</DIV><DIV>A rollicking small-town adventure, <I>Bedrock</I> features Alther&rsquo;s signature mix of unexpected, humorous characters, and a charming heroine on the long bumpy road to self-actualization.</DIV><DIV>&#160;</DIV><DIV>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Lisa Alther, including rare photos from the author&rsquo;s personal collection.</DIV></DIV>
