What is Little Lucky, The: A Family Geography about?
A tumble-down schoolhouse and a loving, troubled family are at the heart of The Little Lucky, a reflection of the many ways in which a place can shape and be shaped by family. In discerning and nimble prose, Gail Wells tells the story of how she and her husband moved from their tiny Seattle apartment to her grandfather's house, formerly an abandoned schoolhouse, near the Little Luckiamute River of western Oregon. They work earnestly to transform the slantwise structure into a home and discover both joy and frustration along the way. With wry clarity, Wells reveals the tangled dream of living in rural Oregon-a chronically flooded basement, mouse skeletons inside the bathroom walls, and the relentless struggle to fix the unfixable-all while raising a family and salvaging a place alive with memories.
