At the Round Earth's Imagined Corners (short story) by Lauren Groff
Details
When I say Florida, what comes to mind?
Disney world, Tekashi 6ix9ine, golf clubs, 'Florida man', mosquitos, bath salts, alligators, beach bods, voting irregularities: terrible, all of it.
Lauren Groff short story collection, Florida, serves a cool slice of humble key lime pie. The story is human and touching and helped me relax my hatred of the America's Wing.
Be prepared to discuss family, duty, bonds, time, and snakes. Also, our perceptions of the South and Florida.
P.S. You can read the whole story in Amazon's 'sample'.
