Title: Feeling for the air
Description: In "Feeling for the Air," Karen Black offers a remarkable sequel about the unconventional Devereux cousins, Dace who's determined to clear his name and Liza, a gifted college student who's still crazy in love with him. Like Black's first book, "Feeling for the Air" is a rare combination of literary suspense and emotional truth. Dace -alleged member of te Wolfhounds motorcycle gang, riot leader and possibly a murderer- has escaped from a brand-new Canadian penitentiary built to house the "worst of the worst." For his pregnant cousin Liza, he heads to Mexico via an Indian reserve to find out where the monarch butterflies really over-winter. Isolated by her choices and hounded by people in Dace's hometown, Liza keeps studying while she struggles to raise their baby alone and find out who's really persecuting Dace. "Feeling for the air" is an unique novel, focusing on love and longing, want versus need and how we come to terms with our choices and the lives we're given.
