Summary

In the parks of Coconut Grove you can hear Bob Dylan still strumming acoustic; smoke a joint with Fred Neil; and "Everybody’s Talkin" is carried on the wind. Recapturing the dying '60s, peopled by the voices of her generation, Stephanie walks through pregnancy to pain, finding unexpected friends in unlikely places and a growing instinct for truth and generosity.

A true story, recounted on a beach in Yucatan, this distilled novel rekindles the optimism of innocence, when all things seemed possible, before dreams surrendered to grey men in grey suits.

A Shadow in Yucatan tells Stephanie's story but her story was also the story of that golden time. Its nostalgia sings like cicadas in the heat.
