LITERARY REVIEW between the lines "Juniper Tree Burning" By: Brittany Harrison I WCnewsmagazine Goldberry Long's first novel is called "Juniper Tree Burning," a name it shares with its protagonist. The title was obviously chosen for its fierce lyricism, but we are informed by the inside front flap that our protagonist despises her name. Juniper is the daughter of hippie parents. (With a name like Goldberry, one wonders if the author has this in common with her protagonist.) Her brother's name is Sunny Boy Blue. They live in a New Mexico cabin without electricity or plumbing. Their parents smoke peyote and worship in a sweat lodge. Juniper renames herself Jennifer and becomes a devoted student in hopes of establishing as much normalcy in her life as possible. She leaves home at fourteen to live with an older woman—her "fairy godmother"—who teaches her how to get whatever she wants out of the world with the right combination of clothes, sass and intelligence. The novel begins when Juniper/Jennifer receives the news of Sunny Boy Blue's suicide. They have not spoken since her wedding, months before, when he kidnapped her from her reception. Upon his death, Juniper/ Jennifer is thrust into a confrontation with the memories and bitterness of her upbringing. She calls herself the bereaved in a tone that tempts the reader to slap her. Yet it is this lack of sentimentality that I enjoy most about "Juniper Tree Burning." It is the story of "a lonely, socially inept child...a disgusting thing to see. It's vile and embarassing, like seeing an old woman shit her pants in church." And yet one comes to feel something more than pity for Juniper Tree Burning, her vile childhood, and the Ugly Chick (her words) that she grows into. "Juniper Tree Burning did not affect me strongly the first time I read it. The action jumps between the present day and Jennifer's childhood; the result is sometimes confusing, often alienating from the tension of the immediate scene. And the dramatic emotional climax that characterizes so many memoir-esque novels of childhood trauma and adult maladjustment is missing. I had to separate myself from my expectations for a moment in order to understand the value of that absence. Juniper's story is not heart wrenching, but it is powerful, and much of its power lies in the subtlety so few modern novels employ.
