But when Natalie Marx's mother inquires about summer accommodations in Vermont, she gets the following reply: \u003ci\u003eThe Inn at Lake Devine is a family-owned resort, which has been in continuous operation since 1922. Our guests who feel most comfortable here, and return year after year, are Gentiles.\u003c\/i\u003e For twelve-year-old Natalie, who has a stubborn sense of justice, the words are not a rebuff but an infuriating, irresistible challenge. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this beguiling novel, Elinor Lipman charts her heroine's fixation with a small bastion of genteel anti-Semitism, a fixation that will have wildly unexpected consequences on her romantic life. As Natalie tries to enter the world that has excluded her--and succeeds through the sheerest of accidents--\u003ci\u003eThe Inn at Lake Devine\u003c\/i\u003e becomes a delightful and provocative romantic comedy full of sparkling social mischief.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Random House (NY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780375704857\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.93h x 5.18w x 0.61d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/23\/1999 pg. 36\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Elinor Lipman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36636688416924,"sku":"9780375704857","price":18.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_058bd825-c1c6-457b-81c5-cafccfad72c8.jpg?v=1603842650","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-inn-at-lake-devine-9780375704857","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
