"A warm, beguiling book full of hard-won wisdom."--Janet Maslin,
The New York Times
"The Center of Everything is as realistic and familiar as a summer
day in Kansas--brave and gritty, strong voiced and spare."--O, The
Oprah Magazine
Set in Kerrville, Kansas, The Center of Everything is told by
Evelyn Bucknow, an endearing character with a wholly refreshing way
of looking at the world. Living with her single mother in a small
apartment, Evelyn Bucknow is a young girl wincing her way through
adolescence. With a voice that is as charming as it is
recognizable, Evelyn immerses the reader in the dramas of an entire
community. The people of Kerrville, stuck at once in the middle of
nowhere but also at the center of everything, are the source from
which Moriarty draws on universal dilemmas of love and belief to
render a story that grows in emotional intensity until it lifts the
reader to heights achieved only by the finest of fiction.
