By Dante Paradiso

Release : 2005-12-14

Genre : Fiction & Literature, Books

Kind : ebook

(0 ratings)
If character is fate, The Pure Life paints the connection between who we are and what we do, and shows that everyday living, filled as it is with our inadvertent and deliberate actions, has consequence. After college graduation, Jackson Dean heads for the Pacific Northwest to build trails with the California Conservation Corps. He finds himself on a crew alongside Marcus, a young, streetwise Othello, Rebecca, an aspiring artist, Desiree, a privileged dropout, and Bane, a mercurial figure who seems to operate in the shadows of the experience. The work is labor intensive, and the outward journey, inward. Jackson and Rebecca fall for each other but immediately face an indefinite separation. And, when Marcus gets a call from his old gang, Bane's machinations implicate Jackson, Rebecca and Desiree in a subtle intrigue that leaves each of them facing stark choices between loyalty and pride, loss and love.
