Nel 1928, dopo dieci anni come giornalista, Marjorie volta le spalle alla sicurezza finanziaria e al suo matrimonio, e si trasferisce in Florida, a Cross Creek. Qui va ad abitare in un cottage fatiscente circondato da un aranceto. La conoscenza dei vicini, gente semplice, e il contatto con la natura selvaggia le daranno l’ispirazione per il suo primo romanzo.
