Seven Island has two homes. One for Hillsingers and one for Quicks. The entire year is 1964. The Hillsingers and the Quicks have shared the small Maine island of Seven for years. But though theoretically family - Jim Hillsinger and Billy Quick committed Playground Avenue sisters Lila and Hannah Blackwell - they don't combine. Now, on the wedding anniversary of Hannah's loss of life, Lila seems grief tugging her toward Billy. And Jim, a spy recently ousted from the CIA on suspicion of treason, determines to carry out the menace his better half has explicitly forbidden: to banish their youngest kid, the 12-year-old Catta, to the neighboring island of Baffin for 24 hours so that they can make a man out of him. With their elders preoccupied, the Hillsinger and Quick children run outrageous, playing violent games led by Catta's sadistic more mature brother Wayne. The island supervisor Cyrus and the servants tend to the young families while finding your way through the Migration, a yearly farming ritual which means one thing to their employers, then one completely different to them. Place during three summer times, Estep Nagy's debut novel movements among the communities of Eight as longstanding tensions become tactical face-offs in which everything is reasonable game for ammunition. Vividly taking the rift between the chilly warriors of Jim's era and the rebellious seekers of Catta's, We Shall NOT ABSOLUTELY ALL Rest is a richly informed history of American category, family, and manipulation - a convincing portrait of a unique and privileged WASP stronghold on the brink of dissolution.
