The Best Novel About a ?De-Gaying Camp? Ever Written

Danforth herself grew up in Miles City, Mont., and now lives in Providence, R.I., where she?s a professor at Rhode Island College. I?ve known her for a few years and?full disclosure?gave a blurb to this novel, though I promise it?s not just writerly chumminess that made me fall for it. It?s the terrific writing, the sharp observations, the dead-on depiction of the churning angst of being fifteen years old, and above all, the sense that this is a novel that needs to exist at this national and cultural moment. Last week, I interviewed Danforth about why she's the person who had to write it.
