The twelve stories in Kate Blackwell's debut collection illuminate the lives of men and women who appear as unremarkable as your next-door-neighbor until their lives explode quietly on the page.
In "My First Wedding," a twelve-year-old girl attends her cousin's Deep South wedding, where she discovers both mystery and disillusionment and, in the end, finds she's not immune to her family's myth of romantic love. In "Heartbeatland," when a young woman's husband dies suddenly, she refuses to sell his Jeep to an importuning gay neighbor. The more she clings to the Jeep - and to the memory of her beloved David - the more he becomes someone she doesn't recognize. In "Queen of the May," a former belle looks for ways to assuage her loneliness in her new mansion in the empty Carolina sandhills.
