Background
Laraine's first novel, When Willa Fell, is set in the world she knew well growing up, Arizona’s high desert plateau. The small town of Snowflake is home to fierce winds, vast cattle ranches and hard working people. Growing up in a hometown surrounded by the rich culture of the Navajo Hopi and Apache tribes, she has a great respect for their traditions, as well as a love for the stark beauty of reservation lands.
A young Navajo girl character figures prominently in her novel,
When Willa Fell.
