Description
"This is a most remarkable and beautiful book--it swims along fluidly, back and forth in time . . . As a family hikes in the woods, they happen upon the ruins of a home that existed long ago. But as the ordinary becomes extraordinary, we journey dreamily back to a time when another family lived and loved in this very same place".--American Bookseller. Full color.
