Aprašymas

DRESDEN SUITE is a collection of 10 short stories and a novella set in the fictional New England town during the 1980s and 1990s. Dresden is the home of Amberton College, which began as a women's seminary in the mid 1800's, developed into a women's college, and then a coeducational university. The stories peel away the ideal vision of the town to reveal its hidden truths. The stories have multi-cultural protagonists. In "A Resident of Dresden" and "Good Mother, Good Girl" the central characters are African American. In "Indian Summer," there is a significant connection to the Native American community. All the characters in the stories are transplants, from the German immigrants who founded the town, to the French Canadians who worked nearby, to the southern African Americans who settled there. This is the community of Dresden.
