{"product_id":"9781662525711","title":"Six Weeks in Reno : A Novel by Lucy H. Hedrick","description":"A woman at a \"divorce ranch\" in 1930s Reno strives to live life on her own terms in a powerful novel about heartbreak, hope, and the allure of the unknown.   September 27, 1931. Today my new life begins.   After twenty years in a loveless marriage, Evelyn Henderson will do anything to escape her stifling suburban life. She boards a train for Reno, Nevada, a former frontier town that's booming thanks to \"six-weekers\": women from all walks of life who take up residence there just long enough to secure an uncontested divorce-a right they don't yet have in their home states.   Evelyn settles into the Flying N Ranch and soon bonds with her housemates, most of whom have never ventured this far from home-or from societal conventions. The Biggest Little City in the World offers a heady taste of freedom for the six-weekers: horseback riding in denim and fringe by day and being courted by dance-hall cowboys by night. But underneath the glamour are the grim realities of Depression-era America, as well as the devastating consequences of escape.   As Evelyn is drawn out of her shell by a Hollywood-handsome wrangler and challenged by her new friends to reengage with the world in all its heartbreaking complexity, one thing becomes clear: six weeks will change her life forever.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56302710129013,"sku":"9781662525711","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781662525711.jpg?v=1762793087","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781662525711","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
