Pineapples With Sodium Chloride

The sun is out to kill, and for some reason, the pineapples are thriving. Leeum, freshly graduated, questionably blonde, and emotionally constipated, is doing what most people do after high school ends: nothing, mostly. But between an attic, a heatwave, and a lingering sense that something's about to shift, he finds himself heading north. All while he savors the sweet, salty sting of pineapples dipped in sodium chloride on his tongue.

Told with biting humor and the quiet ache of growing up, Pineapples With Sodium Chloride is a coming-of-age story about memory, family, and the kinds of love we feel longer than we have.
