A Girl From The South

by Joanna Trollope

"Gillon Stokes is a girl from the South, yet with her lack of convention and her disregard for makeup and the traditions of Southern femininity, she defies stereotype. When Gillon flees Charleston for a summer stint in London, she is befriended by the assured yet insecure Tilly. But when it's time for Gillon to return home, Tilly's boyfriend, Henry, follows her. A photographer, he falls in love with the wildlife of the South Carolina marshes, the Stokes family and the entire South. And it is through his loving lens that everything is seen afresh and transformed."--BOOK JACKET.
