In the early 1900s, Kathleen Epelde's grandparents left Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa in the Basque Country to immigrate to Idaho. Her grandfathers herded sheep in the mountains while her grandmothers worked in the boardinghouses that the herders when they came down from the hills. When Kathleen returns to Boise after nearly fifty years of being away, the landscape of her past unfolds. Walking in the foothills each day with the desert spread out below, she begins to remember. With grace and sensitivity, Epelde writes of the strength and character of her Basque grandparents who left their home forever with little money and even less English, and of how their immigrant legacy shaped her parents -- and her. Time Talk is a story of love and loss, of immigration and survival, of losing a home and finding one.
