This is a collection of unpublished short stories written by Elena Negron. The emotional journey of these stories, in which a shocking number of women go to the beach, circles around girlhood, belonging, and naivety. A grandmother, daughter, and granddaughter make life changing discoveries during a Puerto Rican holiday. Two cousins switch identities. A love letter is written by an unknown speaker to a young college student.

In this collection, women endure, women thrive, and above all: women go to the beach.
