The Cicada Year

Carolina Beaumont has lost everything -- her sweet suburban life, her ritzy house and gorgeous car, her identity as a wife and mother -- so she leaps up from the wreckage to embrace an old dream. In an intentional community, she finds a fire-swinging man, an idealistic young woman, and the me she used to be. Anything can happen in the Cicada Year, a time of change and awakening.
