Caught Between Worlds
Caught Between Worlds is a Young Adult, coming-of-age portrait of the late 1970s, set in a remote fishing town and village in Alaska.
Two main characters are high school seniors: a boy and a girl in a struggling romantic relationship in the small, isolated town where they both grew up. A third main character is a seventh-grade boy from a nearby village who is taken to the town for schooling and has to face a world he knows little about. The narrative follows each of them through a trying school year of social conflict and forces of nature that test their concepts of identity, the future, and the worlds they must confront.
Meant to appeal to a wide audience, it is engaging reading for adults as well because all of us have lived through that stage of life, and may have had or will have teenagers to raise. Many dimensions of family generational dynamics, as well as gender, minority and ethnicity issues, course through this thoughtful and realistic human story.
Caught is available in both ebook and paperback formats.
