This book, set in the American state of Nebraska during the early 20th century, is based on the lives of the Allingham family, farmers and devout members of the Catholic community. Its themes explore the dynamics of divorce, emotion, and family bonds. In turn-of-the-century America, the author portrays the stark societal divide between varying religious communities and their members and presents an unapologetically frank perspective on divorce through the eyes of the protagonist and matriarch of the Allingham family, Mrs. Allingham. Tackling other controversies of the era such as interracial issues and the stigma surrounding illegitimate births, the author uses this historical context to shed light on their continuing hold on human nature. This book's honest depiction of such important issues through the lens of the Allingham family will resonate with a broad range of readers.
