Fifteen year old Alice dreams of her first kiss, has sleepovers, auditions for Our Town and tries to pass high school biology. It's 1975 and at first look, her life would seem to be normal and unexceptional. But in the world that Leslie Pietrzyk paints, every moment she chronicles is revealed through the kaleidoscope of loss, strained by the fact that Alice's mother, without warning, note or apology, deliberately parks her car on the railroad tracks in the path of an oncoming train.
