Reader reviews for Onlyville

From the publisher

Anna Berman is floundering in her own turbid crisis. At 29, she has most of an undergraduate degree, a non-career as a temp, and an aging and overwhelming lover, Sal, a paranoid Korean War vet. In desperation Anna flees to her family's abandoned cottage in Onlyville. She dives into her past, hoping to emerge refreshed by the ghost of her mother.

From the rear cover

When Anna Berman leaves her boyfriend Sal in 1974 and heads for the family cottage on a small island in the Atlantic, she expects solitude, time to think and to sort out her life. But uninvited guests descend - first Sal, then her teenage niece with a flower-power friend in tow, and finally her father's runaway girlfriend Helene. Once again Anna is drawn into a tumult of precarious relationships, drowning in the needs and desires of others. With much wit and wisdom, Cynthia Holz illuminates Anna's inner struggle as she fights for autonomy and insight. Onlyville is a funny and poignant novel that offers a rich vision of love, loss, and discovery.

Description:
Toronto, Ontario, Canada: Porcupines Quill, 1994. Soft cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall. Signed by Author. Soft cover. Very good condition. 190 pages. Onlyville opens in 1974 on the eastern seaboard of the United States against the background of the Watergate scandal and the pulsating pressure to impeach Richard Nixon. But all that is merely white noise for Anna Berman, who is floundering in her own turbid crisis. At 29, she has most of an undergraduate degree, a non-career as a temp, and an aging and overwhelming lover, Sal, a paranoid Korean War vet. In desperation Anna flees to her family's abandoned cottage in Onlyville. She dives into her past, hoping to emerge refreshed and unfettered by the ghost of her mother, who one day, years before, left Anna sitting on the beach, watching, while she swam away until she disappeared.'
