In the late 1950s, our young narrator finds comfort in the rules and consistencies of her family life but never hesitates to question her attentive parents about why things are the way they are. From wondering how to keep her beloved dog safe should a tornado hit to questioning why her father is speaking to a strange woman on the phone, the narrator is not content to leave worries un-addressed. As she grows up, health problems, relocation, and loss force her to continually reassess her world. Equal parts humorous and heartbreaking, The Northeast Corner is a coming-of-age look into the Ann Arbor of the late 1950s and early 1960s, experienced through a precocious and tenacious young woman.
