My sister just gave me a copy of Karen Russell's book St. Lucy's Home for Girls Raised by Wolves (Alfred A. Knopf, 2006). This collection of ten short stories by a young author from Miami has received glowing reviews, and I'm looking forward to reading the book over the Labor Day weekend. A quick glance at online reviews suggests I can expect some fantasy elements in a south Florida, Everglades setting.
