In this collection, the character of Violet Quesnel is the unifying thread, even though the stories take place in different times and places with different characters? points of view, . Because Violet experiences bi-polar disorder, her existential anxiety is further complicated. She is aware of her outside world but has limited self-awareness. The portrait of Violet that emerges through her family and friends is one of a young woman who has faced down the denial, anger and depression of her bi-polarity, but from Violet herself we learn that she has bargained for her place in the world as a sister, daughter and mother.
