"An elegant, elegiac multigenerational saga about a small coal-mining community in western Pennsylvania...Their lives unfold in episodes that tie the individual to the community, and the lines of connection between characterseven the most minorweave an intricate social tapestry. By the time the mines close for good, every thread connects. Almost mythic in its ambition, somewhere between Oates and Updike country, and thoroughly satisfying."Jennifer Haigh is the author of 'Baker Towers', published 2005 under ISBN 9780060509415 and ISBN 0060509414.
