About the author.
Summary:
Now, in this collection of interconnected short stories, Jennifer Haigh returns to the vividly imagined world of Bakerton,
Pennsylvania
, a
coal
mining
town rocked by decades of painful transition. From its heyday during two World Wars through its slow decline, Bakerton is a town that refuses to give up gracefully, binding--sometimes cruelly - succeeding generations to the place that made them.
