Q Road

Greenland Township, Michigan: On the same acres where farmers once displaced Potawatomi Indians, suburban developers now supplant farmers and prefab homes spring up in last year's cornfields. All along Q Road — or "Queer Road," as the locals call it — the old, rural life collides weirdly with the new. With a cast of lovingly rendered eccentrics and a powerful sense of place, Q Roadis a lively tale of nature and human desire that alters the landscape of contemporary fiction.
