From the writer of Veronica, a finalist for the Country wide Book Prize for fiction, comes Mary Gaitskill's most poignant and powerful work yet: the story of any Dominican female, the white girl who presents her to using, and the equine who changes everything for her. Velveteen Vargas can be an 11-year-old from Brooklyn who's granted a summertime vacation in the united states, thanks to the nonprofit OXYGEN Fund. Her web host family is a few in upstate NY: Ginger, a failed musician on the fringe of Alcoholics Anonymous; and Paul, an academics who wonders what it will suggest to "change lives" in that contrived situation. Here we see the couple's changing relationship with Velvet over the course of several years as well as Velvet's powerful encounter with the horses at the firm later on, as Gaitskill weaves alongside one another Velvet's essential inner-city community and the privileged country world of Ginger and Paul. The timeless account of a girl and a equine is joined with the story of individuals from different races and socioeconomic backgrounds looking to meet each other honestly. It is a book that is fresh, stunning, and completely original.
