Wasteland

Wasteland by Francesca Lia Block
Unrated

"Your whole life you can be told something is wrong and so you believe it."

In the vast barren waste of the San Fernando Valley in the early 1980s, Lex and his sister Marina struggle to create their own private, perfect world. Then, when the one relationship that felt whole shatters irrevocably, Marina needs her friend West to help piece the fragments of herself back together. But Marina will never be truly complete until she faces the past that is haunting her.

A refined and sensitive story about love's ability to tear apart and, finally, its ability to transcend.
