All Fours (Riverhead Books)

Miranda July

Set along sun-bleached Southern California highways, All Fours follows a woman and mother whose supposedly simple and solo road trip tilts toward a humorous, unexpected alternate life. Motels hum, desert winds heckle, and the lure of reinvention stays just out of reach. Every detour dare sher onward, pushing her to circle a truth that seems determined to catch her before she can fully recognize it at last.
