The Den by Abi Maxwell
With echoes of The Scarlet Letter, this is a luminous, hypnotic story of youth, sex, and power that tells of two young women who find themselves ostracized from the same small New England community for the same reasons–though they are separated by 150 years. In addition to The Den, Abi Maxwell is the author of the novel Lake People. Her memoir, One Day I’ll Grow Up, I’ll Be A Beautiful Woman, will be published in the summer of 2023. She lives with her husband and daughter in New Hampshire.
