The Seas of West Virginia

By Jane Heidgerd Garrick

Two young lovers flee suburban mediocrity and head for the hills of West Virginia. This is a personal account of a journey that begins in youthful rebellion and leads to a life off the grid. It is 1976. At the time, much of American youth was swept up in a back-to-the-land movement embracing a simpler life. Ever hopeful that they will be better suited to the land than the city, our young couple begins to build a life together from scratch. These are the waters that test them on their way to independence and opportunity. This is their search for love, acceptance and belonging in a world unknown to many. Through a language drenched in natural wonder, this novel weaves a lyrical spell.
