Mimi Miller will be the last Miller to live in Miller’s Valley. Readers will hear Mimi tell her story beginning in the 1960s to the current time. It’s a coming- of age story, but also a story of a place. Miller’s Valley is slated to become a flood prevention project that creates a recreational lake, meaning the Miller’s family farm will be under the waters. Quindlen writes with grace and wit. If you grew up in a rural community in the 1960s, this could be your story. Living for a time in Riley County, KS, we heard stories of lost communities that were submerged under Tuttle Creek Lake. So, this book resonated to me on two fonts.
