"The words `I am...' are potent words; be careful what you hitch them to. The thing you're claiming has a way of reaching back and claiming you."

A powerful and original novel that tests perceived notions of family, home, and community, to probe the mysteries of our fundamental loyalties. Shrewd, closely observed and deeply feeling, this novel is a remarkable achievement.
