In After Eden, San Francisco writer Valerie Miner relates the story of a community of women in Northern California's Mackenzie Valley, where Chicago city planner Emily Adams decides to live after the sudden death of her life partner. In the modern-day Eden of California's coastal range, Emily finds conflict all around her: between loggers and environmentalists, farm workers and immigration authorities, newcomers establishing a lesbian community and long-time residents adhering to traditional ways. The novel is a unique look at a new American West.
