Summary:
"Intimate, lyric essays about the land and people around [the author]. With the inside perspective of a native New Englander combined with her outsider status as a lesbian, Reid explores such paradoxes as those that arise from harnessing wild rivers or legalizing same-sex marriage."-- From jacket flap.
