A withdrawn library copy, given to me by a friend who was visiting Georgia. I haven't read it yet, but am registering and releasing since I'm moving.
"In these ten glittering short stories, debut author Karen Russell takes us to the ghostly and magical swamps of the Florida Everglades. Here, wolf-like girls are reformed by nuns; a family makes its living wrestling alligators in a theme park; and little girls sail away on crab shells. Filled with stunning inventiveness and heart, St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves introduces a radiant new writer."

Bringing to tonight's meeting of the Tbilisi English Book Swap. It will remain on the shelves at Lokal if it doesn't find a reader at the meeting.
