In these four interconnected tales, residents of a rural Illinois lake town in the 1950s move through deep love, loneliness, great joy and the mystical, as they discover the truths that linger just below the surface of everyday lives. A farm couple, a young newspaper man, an aging sign painter, and a store owner, all carry us with them on their singular journeys.

In the tradition of "Virgin Suicides" comes an enchanting, critically acclaimed novel of a young man's coming of age in the '90s. Claude Cheever--Cheevey--is about to turn 20 and his family is disintegrating around him. But as he begins to spread his wings and experience adulthood, Cheevey learns that there is a price for letting go too soon--and not soon enough.
