A woman waging a solo campaign against rodents--neighbors, separated only by the thin walls of a low-cost housing complex in the once bustling industrial center of Vacca Vale, Indiana. Welcome to the Rabbit Hutch. Ethereally beautiful and formidably intelligent, Blandine shares her apartment with three teenage boys she neither likes nor understands, all, like her, now aged out of the state foster care system that has repeatedly failed them all searching for meaning in their lives. Set over on sweltering week in July and culminating in a bizarre act of violence that finally changes everything, The Rabbit Hutch is a stunning snapshot of contemporary America: a love poem to anyone who has ever felt trapped, left behind, or forgotten, and yearned to connect, to be free."-- Page [4] of cover Tess Gunty. n-usc-- Apartment dwellers Fiction Middle West Fiction PS3607.U54827 2023 Gunty, Tess.
