Product Information
A stunningly written investigation of the murder of two young women--showing how a violent crime casts a shadow over an entire community. In the early evening of June 25, 1980 in Pocahontas County, West Virginia, two middle-class outsiders named Vicki Durian, 26, and Nancy Santomero, 19, were murdered in an isolated clearing. They were hitchhiking to a festival known as the Rainbow Gathering but never arrived; they traveled with a third woman however, who lived. For thirteen years, no one was prosecuted for the Rainbow Murders, though deep suspicion was cast on a succession of local residents in the community, depicted as poor, dangerous, and backward. In 1993, a local farmer was convicted, only to be released when a known serial killer and diagnosed schizophrenic named Joseph Paul Franklin claimed responsibility. With the passage of time, as the truth seemed to slip away, the investigation itself caused its own traumas--turning neighbor against neighbor and confirming a fear of the violence outsiders have done to this region for centuries. Emma Copley Eisenberg spent years living in Pocahontas and re-investigating these brutal acts. Using the past and the present, she shows how this mysterious act of violence has loomed over all those affected for generations, shaping their fears, fates, and the stories they tell about themselves. In The Third Rainbow Girl , Eisenberg follows the threads of this crime through the complex history of Appalachia, forming a searing and wide-ranging portrait of America--its divisions of gender and class, and of its violence.

Reviews
TheThird Rainbow Girl succeeds on two levels: first, as a deepdive inquiry into the 1980 murders of two young women in PocahontasCounty, West Virginia, and the ensuing, tangled investigation, and second, asan intimate and humane portrait of a close-knit Appalachian community, thekind of place that is often reduced by outsiders to little more than a clichéof itself. As Jimmy Breslin once wrote of the legendary New York chronicler,Damon Runyan, 'He did what all great reporters do ... he hung out.' Aremarkable book., Emma Eisenberg has distinguished herself as a reporter of remarkable wisdom and conscience, and her powers are on full display in The Third Rainbow Girl . Eisenberg's meticulous, compassionate reporting does not promise any of the easy answers we might expect from true crime: neither about what happened to the "Rainbow Girls," nor about poverty, injustice, and the fate of outsiders-whether hippies, hitchhikers, carpet baggers, or journalists-who give and take in this country's poorest areas. Her insights are hard won, deep, and devastating, making this an unforgettable debut., Emma Copley Eisenberg has written a true crime book that brings to mind Truman Capote's masterpiece In Cold Blood : elegantly written, perfectly paced, and vividly realized people and places. Equally impressive is her refusal to condescend to the inhabitants of the Appalachian community where the crimes occurred. The Third Rainbow Girl is a major achievement., Stepping into darkness, she extracts a nuanced sense of place and draws a map with historical connections., TheThird Rainbow Girl is a staggering achievement of reportage, memoir, andsociological reckoning. We are better for this brilliant, gorgeous, and deeplyhumane book., Stepping into darkness, [Eisenberg] extracts a nuanced sense of place and draws a map with historical connections., Headlines only deliver digestible tropes: Backcountry hicks confront hippie celebrants, two dead. But for the indefatigable Emma Eisenberg, approaching the murders at Briery Knob is about more than who fired the gun. An affection for this law-resistant corner of West Virginia enables her to transcend the simple formula of white male rage. Stepping into darkness, she extracts a nuanced sense of place and draws a map with historical connections.|9781549103193|, The Third Rainbow Girl is a fascinating hybrid work of true crime and memoir... In following the twists and turns of the case, Eisenberg paints an affectionate portrait of Appalachia that complicates and contradicts stereotypes about the region., [Eisenberg] reconstructs the case with a brisk paceand a keen sensitivity ... offers a nuanced portrait of a crime and its decadeslong effects. A promising young author reappraises a notorious doublemurder-and her life., Part crime narrative and part soul-searching memoir, Emma Copley Eisenberg's The Third Rainbow Girl has so much wisdom to offer. It's about the corrosiveness of preconceived notions, and about how trauma ripples through cultures and generations, and about finding connections in others and strength in oneself. Rich in detail and sensitivity and intelligence and honesty, this is a book you won't want to put down, one that will stay with you for a long time., Eisenberg hascrafted a beautiful and complicated ode to West Virginia. Exquisitely written,this is a powerful commentary on society's notions of gender, violence, andrural America. Readers of literary nonfiction will devour this title in onesitting., I blazed through this book, which is a true crime page-turner, a moving coming-of-age memoir, an ode to Appalachia, and a scintillating investigation into the human psyche's astounding and sometimes chilling instinct for narrative. A beautiful debut that will stay with me for a long time, whose story mesmerizes even as it convinces you to find all mesmerizing stories suspect., In The Third RainbowGirl: The Long Life of a Double Murder in Appalachia ,Emma Copley Eisenberg uses the unsolved 1980 murders of Vicki Durian, 26, andNancy Santomero, 19, in Pocahontas County, WV, as a lens through which toconsider the effects of violent acts on the communities where they occur., The Third Rainbow Girl is a riveting excavation of the secrets time, history, and place keep. In a long-buried crime, Emma Copley Eisenberg has unearthed a story that reveals America.|9781549103193|

All the basic Bhutanese dishes are presented, But I have been there 8 time and cooked with families, so I am used to the heat! No discussion of chilies versus Ema is presented. Also the selection of cheeses is not really discussed. I don't think Bhutanese in the US use Gouda as a substitute!
