| Publisher Description: Set in rural eastern Ontario from the 1940s to the '60s, these stories capture a time that will never be seen again. A mother of thirteen children lies dying after a botched, backstreet abortion. She begs her husband, "Promise me you'll keep them all together." Through dire poverty and numerous moves from farmhouse to farmhouse, a new wife and eight more children, Pop keeps his promise. |
