About this book

"Hallie Greaves comes home to Ohio one hot week in July hoping to help her mother, who confines her life wholly to her bedroom. To enter her mother's room, however, is to come face to face with Hallie's own disappointments and yearnings. At an impasse in her painting and in her marriage, Hallie confronts questions of love, memory, sorrow, and infertility. Rose, Hallie's girlhood friend, who has abandoned her literary gifts to nurture her children and her husband's career, further tugs Hallie into a re-examination of the life she has chosen."--BOOK JACKET.
