A man in a wheelchair reconstructing his grandparents' marriage, discovering that the past explains less than he hoped. Stegner builds story like geology—layer upon layer, pressure creating unexpected formations. This is for readers who understand that family history is always partly fiction, who have patience for the long work of understanding where we come from. People who know that research can become its own kind of refuge.
