Under the Pear Tree

It is summer again in Fitzgerald, Georgia, and Deanne, Stacy, and Lala are exploring their world in the early 1950s: boys, a visiting cousin with a secret, the courting of a couple across the street, a newcomer who reveals foreign vistas. But after a party at Bowens Mill, Stacy takes her first steps towards adulthood and their world will never be quite the same.
