On the Right Side of a Dream is the sequel to Dancing on the Edge of the Roof, which introduced readers to Northern Kentucky author Sheila Williams' spunky heroine, Juanita Louis. When last seen, Juanita was climbing into a truck cab with her pal Peaches Bradshaw, headed for the West Coast and points unknown. Now Juanita is back in all her feisty middle-aged glory to continue the perilous journey toward self-knowledge and fulfillment.
As an epigraph for On the Right Side of a Dream, Williams quotes Zora Neale Hurston: "There are years that ask questions and there are years that answer." For Juanita, who's abandoned her old life in the projects of Columbus, Ohio, for an exciting but uncertain future, it's all about questions: where to go, what to do, and whom to turn to. By the time the novel ends, she has arrived at some satisfying answers, despite the roadblocks that life keeps throwing up along the way.
