This is Rose's story as her life traverses a time from World War Two to the year 2024. During her college years in the '60's, Rose participates in rallies for Civil Rights, and then protests against the Vietnam War. But when her husband comes home from the fighting with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, her life is profoundly changed. Rose relates her journey through his anger, alcoholism, flashbacks, and addiction, and how those experiences impact her family. She tells of her struggles, like so many others, to raise a family, work a job, and begin a writing career. Rose shows us the significant events in the world that touch her life and shape who she is. It is her journey of adversity and loss, of discovering who she is, and finding The Greatest Thing.
