Alan White's compelling and evocative new novel tells the story of a family living on a small, remote farm in upstate New York in the early years of the twenty-first century. A father and his two young sons wrestle with the challenges of running a farm in a changing world, while their mother tries to hold them together and keep the family together. As the brothers grow and face their own challenges, they come to understand the land and themselves in ways they never could have imagined. White's lyrical and beautiful novel is a powerful and moving exploration of the ties that bind us to the earth and to each other.; 8vo; 285 pages; Price? ? ?
