Notes:  Brings to life the true story of two men, members of Clarke's own family, who were hanged for murder in 1949. In a lyrical liberation of fact and fiction, the novel shifts seamlessly back through the killers' pasts, recounting a bleakly comic tale of victims of violence who became violent themselves, an Africadian community - Three Mile Plains, Nova Scotia - too poor and too shamed to help the men, and a white community bent on condemning all blacks as dangerous outsiders.
