The narratives portray various characters from tight-knit communities, highlighting their daily experiences, relationships, and the nostalgia for simpler times through vivid descriptions and rich imagery. At the start of the collection, the opening portion takes the reader into a nostalgic reflection on childhood memories associated with a small schoolhouse in Tiverton.
