Bewilderness : a novel / Karen Tucker. by Tucker, Karen. Catapult, 2021. Call #: FICTION TUC Subjects Female friendship -- Fiction.   Opioid abuse -- Fiction.   Self-actualization (Psychology) -- Fiction.   Country life -- Fiction.   North Carolina -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781646220243 (hc.) Description:  277 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  Irene, a lonely nineteen-year-old in rural North Carolina, works long nights at the local pool hall, serving pitchers and dodging drunks. One evening, her hilarious, magnetic coworker Luce invites her on a joy ride through the mountains to take revenge on a particularly creepy customer. Their adventure not only spells the beginning of a dazzling friendship, it seduces both girls into the mysterious world of pills and the endless hustles needed to fund the next high. Together, Irene and Luce run nickel-tossing scams at the county fair and trick dealers into trading legit pharms for birth-control pills. Everything is wild and wonderful until Luce finds a boyfriend who wants to help her get clean. Soon the two of them decide to move away and start a new, sober life in Florida--leaving Irene behind. Told in a riveting dialogue between the girls' addicted past and their hopes for a better future, Bewilderness is not just a brilliant, funny, heartbreaking novel about opioid abuse, it's also a moving look at how intense, intimate friendships can shape every young woman's life.
