Alice Gordon 
Summer 

Five personal essays and one short play by six gifted and bestselling American writers—Meg Wolitzer, Louise Erdrich, Beverly Lowry, Diane Johnson, the late Veronica Geng, and the late Alice Adams—capture compelling memories of summer. The subjects include swimming, gardening, cabins in the wilderness, days spent reading, summer love, and a thwarted attempt to go bowling on a hot night.
