Oakland and San Francisco are two polyglot cities linked by the Bay Bridge. A difference is that Oakland has Lake Merritt, a 150 acre expanse of water midtown adjacent to downtown, the nation's first designated wildlife refuge. BACK TO OAKLAND is contemporary fiction with Lake Merritt as backdrop. BACK TO OAKLAND inquires into how character develops, not so much from internal process as from how diverse people learn from each other.
