Aprašymas

Nell Walker and Monkey Burnett have nothing in common—except an impossible longing for each other, their huge and volatile minds, and a bone-deep love for a tiny hardscrabble desert town.

When corporate greed and shortsightedness threaten the fragile Mojave Desert around their homes in Twentynine Palms, California, with devastatingly huge solar and wind power farms, Nell and Monkey join forces with their Chemehuevi and Anglo neighbors to protect an ancient sacred trail and the birds and wildlife that live along it. Through love and work, Nell finds her own near-hidden trail, a pathway that carries her towards a reunion with the mother she tried to forget.

As transcendent as the spare Mojave itself, 29 is a blade-sharp novel of the searing heart of the forbidden desire.
