A debut novel by the 1987 winner of the Pulitzer Prize for poetry, about an artist on a journey of self-discovery--navigating a family secret, racism, and the conflict between marriage and career. Skillfully evokes the mood of a decade when social change seemed not only possible but imminent. --Washington Post Book World When a woman returns to her Midwestern hometown as an artist-in-residence to teach puppetry to schoolchildren, her homecoming also means grappling with artistic ambition, memories of rejected love, and shocking truths about her family.
