WEDNESDAY, August 28th at 7:00pm: VACATIONLAND Wraps Up!

Tonight we take our last trip to Naledi Lodge, and the holiday doings around Hatchet Lake. As the summer winds down, so we wind down our trip through the memoried past of summers that once were, and the lives that were affected forever.

"Vacationland is a moving portrait of a place—at once timeless and of the moment, composed of conflicting dreams and shared experience—and of the woman bound to it by legacy and sometimes longing, but not necessarily by choice."

Sarah Stonich, whose work has been described as “unexpected and moving” by the Chicago Tribune and “a well-paced feast” by the Los Angeles Times, weaves these tales of love and loss, heartbreak and redemption into a rich novel of interconnected and disjointed lives.

"What a marvel! Stonich, as always, hits a home run with this chain of short stories or chaptered novel. With her keen observing eye that spares no one, with her air-tight sentences and her seamless introductions of the past, Stonich creates complex characters that are familiar yet surprise you." 
 ~ Kathryn Kysar on GOODREADS

"There's something so appealing about an old resort closed down for the season, or closed down forever. As we wander among the cabins and faltering foundations, past the lodge and the camp store, peering into the windows as we go, we always imagine more good times than bad. You can almost hear the ghosts of family vacations -- cook-outs, fishing trips, summer romances, and children squealing joyfully as they run through the long summer nights, well past their bedtimes."

Kayden and Caledonia return to that lake in northernmost Minnesota, where you might find Naledi Lodge—only two cabins still standing, its pathways now trodden mostly by memories.

WEDNESDAY, July 24th @7:00pm: VACATIONLAND Begins!

On a lake in northernmost Minnesota, you might find Naledi Lodge—only two cabins still standing, its pathways now trodden mostly by memories. And there you might meet Meg, or the ghost of the girl she was, growing up under her grandfather’s care in a world apart and a lifetime ago. Now an artist, Meg paints images “reflected across the mirrors of memory and water,” much as the linked stories of "Vacationland" cast shimmering spells across distance and time.
