Product Description
Los Angeles Times
"Kimmel gives us a stunning bird’s-eye view of rural American life, as damning as it is affectionate."

USA Today
‘To be read for its characters, its surprising phrasing and the way it deals with all sorts of ideas, including the possibility of improbable love.’

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, moving, inspiring literature, 16 Jun 2003
By hug_the_cat (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This is absolutely the best book I've read in years: Haven Kimmel takes you by the heart and leads you through a heartbreaking but ultimately uplifting and beautiful story about family, community and love. It is written so elegantly and with such wisdom that I assure you that once you've read it, you'll buy it for every man, woman and child you know. At least, that's what I've done.

One note of warning though: it has a slow start so - as with all books - read the first 50 pages before you make the decision whether to carry on or not.
