![]() ![]() Even though it seems a relatively placid place to live, the month of May brings about drastic changes in the town. Verity is newly inundated with single mothers, due to the low cost of living and the scenery. In the case of this novel, most of the magical realism elements are set around the human connection to animals, and the chaos around month of May that takes over the small town of Verity, Florida every year. She's well-known for her use of magical realism, taking fantastic elements and weaving them into the plot of something set in our world, without the 'start-from-scratch' world building of urban fantasy. I generally dislike anything contemporary, but in the case of Alice Hoffman novels, I love it. ![]()
