DESCRIPTION:This Young Girl Passing explores  the dynamics of an illicit 
 relationship between a troubled schoolgirl  and her young French teacher
  in Upstate NY in the 1970s\, simultaneously  capturing the feel of post
 -Vietnam life in America. In alternating  chapters the novel jumps twent
 y years forward\, tracing the renewed  affair between the teacher and st
 udent (by then married with a teenage  daughter of her own) which contin
 ues until the teacher s wife discovers  the affair. This Young Girl Pass
 ing is a non-linear love story and a realistic portrayal of Middle Ameri
 ca that spans three decades.\nDonald Breckenridge is The Brooklyn Rail F
 iction and InTranslation Editor and author of more than a dozen plays as
  well as the novella Rockaway Wherein (Red Dust\, 1998) and the novels 6
 /2/95 (Spuyten Duyvil\, 2002) and You Are Here (Starcherone Books\, 2009
 ).\nHe'll be giving a fiction workshop prior to the reading. For worksho
 p details contact Erica David at events@bigbluemarblebooks.com.
