Everyone in Emlyn Springs knows the story of Hope Jones, the physician's wife whose big dreams for their tiny town were lost along with her in the tornado of 1978. For Hope's three young children, the stability of life with their preoccupied father, and with Viney, their mother's spitfire best friend, is no match for Hope's absence. Larken, the eldest, is now an art history professor who seeks in food an answer to a less tangible hunger; Gaelan, the son, is a telegenic weatherman who devotes his life to predicting the unpredictable; and the youngest, Bonnie, is a self-proclaimed archivist who combs roadsides for clues to her mother's legacy, and permission to move on. When they're summoned home after their father's death, each sibling is forced to revisit the childhood tragedy that has defined their lives. 650 0 $a Adult children $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grief $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Parents $x Death $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Grief $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Adult children. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00797226 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 650 7 $a Parents $x Death. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01053458 655 0 $a Domestic fiction. 655 4 $a Domestic fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726589 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0913/2009278903-b.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy1502/2009278903-d.html 856 42 $u http://iplstaff.blogspot.com/2010/11/sing-them-home-by-stephanie-kallos.html $z Staff Review 856 42 $z Additional information at Google Books $u http://books.google.com/books?id=Ft7mNrgTDCMC&dq=sing+them+home&source=gbs_navlinks_s 941 $a 5 $n 1 952 $l ECPA325 $d 20210617145337.0 $n 9 $p pbs 952 $l DAPG173 $d 20210614150949.0 $n 10 952 $l TKPE492 $d 20210614143349.0 $n 5 $p +3LP+CD 952 $l ZBPE245 $d 20210603151837.0 $n 14 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20210603104233.0 $n 4 $p +3CD 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=30ECC3ACAC3311EB98A411E3203FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
