Swing Bridge -- Hughes

<p>This intrepid debut collection is set in Mobjack Virginia, a fictionalized community on the Chesapeake Bay during the years surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. The stories explore the collision of come-here and from-here reactions to divisive social issues such as Confederate monuments, Me-Too, transgenderism, and racial reckoning, capturing complexities instead of reinforcing assumptions. The setting comes alive with reflective illustrations on natural and historic details, making Mobjack itself seem like a character. Above all, the collection celebrates the richness of small-town life by delving into dynamics invisible to a casual visitor.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Hughes<br><b>Publisher:</b> Port Haywood Press<br><b>Published:</b> 04/30/2023<br><b>Pages:</b> 166<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.55lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9798218172534
