Eighteen unforgettable stories of women navigating the beauty and chaos of Miami.
The Tamiami Trail cuts through the contradictions of Miami: a city shaped by swamps and skyscrapers, violence and desire. In Tamiami Trail: Miami Stories, Jennifer Bannan brings us eighteen vivid portraits of women navigating this teeming, volatile landscape.
An adolescent trapped in a toxic relationship. A middle-aged woman entangled with a reckless boy. A marketing executive profiting off the chaos of hurricanes. These women—mothers, daughters, lovers—take their chances in a world where environmental and personal disasters collide, where the ocean’s expanse mirrors the risks they take with their own lives.
Steamy, sharp, and deeply human, Tamiami Trail depicts the beauty and brutality of Miami, evoking its lush landscapes and relentless energy. With wit and sharp insight, Bannan maps the unruly desires that drive her unforgettable characters and the city that shapes them.
