Drinking the Rain
Alix Kates Shulman
Penguin, $11.95 (paper)
From the author of “Memoirs of an Ex-Prom Queen,” this book describes Shulman’s 10 summers on an island off the coast of Maine in a cabin with no plumbing, electricity or telephone. Shulman takes long looks inward as she tries to find alternatives to the destructive values of late 20th Century consumerism.
