Grayson Thompson: A Congregation of Alligators, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

A two-lane Florida roadway opened in 1968. Now a superhighway, Alligator Alley, quickly became a dangerous place for tired people driving to (or from) the outline of home. A reckoning of which came first, the person or the dinosaur, straddling becoming. Grayson arrived to this book at the collision, and meant every word. Found each answer at the corner of rebellion and tenderness. Was afraid of the dark the entire time and still is. A self-described sand-bodied Florida boy, A Congregation of Alligators explores what happens when the stories we've been told about ourselves, as old as the beginning and taught to us so true that they feel prehistoric, were put to rest.
