The Tale for Three
Counties book choice for
2014 is a debut novel by
Karen Thompson Walker,
The Age of Miracles. On an ordinary Satur-
day in a California suburb,
Julia and her family
awake to discover, along
with the rest of the world,
that the rotation of the earth has sud-
denly begun to slow . The days and nights
grow longer and longer, gravity is af-
fected, the environment is thrown into
disarray. Yet as she struggles to navigate
an ever-shifting landscape, Julia is also
coping with the normal disasters of every-
day life - the fissures in her parents’ mar-
riage, the loss of old friends, and the
hopeful anguish of first love. As Julia ad-
justs to the new normal, the slowing con-
tinues.
