A magnificent family saga by one of America's masters of literature. This is the first in the highly acclaimed Mayfield family trilogy, known as "A Great Circle."
The Philadelphia Inquirer said, "Turn to any page and the writing beguiles you. Reynolds Price is at the peak of his extraordinary lyrical gifts."
