She dreams of leaving the farm and exploring the world, but her grandfather is resistant to the idea. When Dulcimer meets a young man named John Stirling, she sees him as her ticket to a new life. But John has his own secrets and troubles, and Dulcimer must navigate her way through a complicated web of relationships and emotions.The novel explores themes of love, family, and the struggle between tradition and progress.
