About this book
Description
It is 1972 and Ellen Grier finds herself back in the Midwestern hometown she thought she had escaped for good. Worse yet, she and her family have had to move in with her in-laws : narrowminded, eccentric people who are as tough as the farm lives they have endured. Devout Catholics, they inhabit a world "as rigid, as, as precise as a church", and Ellen struggles to live by their motto: "A place for everything; everything in its place".
