Lies slip into conversation as shaded truths or blunt fabrications, some harmful, others meant to soothe. One old woman, Roberta Ellen McClary, married three time, attempts to make sense of life; her life and the lives of her friends, lovers and husbands, family and occasional strangers. Born during the Depression, to a New Mexico farm family struggling with the blowing earth, Remi and her father move to a ranch where Remi grows up to work as a cowhand during WWII. Her life is filled with longing, self-discovery, passionate love and enduring sadness. Taking turns, Remi offers her story in detail, or speaks directly to the reader, discussing the blatant force of lies, odd habits, unbearable foolishness. Her voice is sharp and fresh, gentled with undertones of love and humor, and the forbearance that makes life endurable
