Built on the challenges and hardships faced by a child and her handicapped mother in a relatively isolated Newfoundland outpost, this is a powerful first novel. Widely acclaimed, both in her native Newfoundland and in the rest of the country, Morrissey has captured the spirit and dialect of her homeland in this touching work.
