What is Alison's Automotive Repair Manual: A Novel about?
Online resource; title from EPUBtitle page (OverDrive, viewed June 13, 2013) A widow in her mid-thirties, Alison has been mourning for two years. Now living in small town West Virginia with her sister Sarah and brother-in-law Bill, Alison is unable to move on with her life. Finally, she promises Sarah and Bill that she will start over & mdash;once she restores the abandoned, nearly ruined 1976 Corvette she found rusting in the garage and immediately loved. Unfortunately, Alison doesn & rsquo;t know the first thing about cars, and the fact that the townspeople (with the exception of a cute demolition man) find a woman messing with automotive parts bewildering doesn & rsquo;t help. With beautiful frankness and surprising hilarity, Brad Barkley tells of a gutsy woman & rsquo;s attempts to overcome loss, and fit into a close-knit community, in a triumphant look at grief, love, loss, and moving on
