About this book
Matthew Fabens feels the pull of a new home in western New York, even as leaving his aging parents troubles him. His neighbor, Uncle Walter, invites him to the woods of Cayuga, describing lakes, forests and opportunities for a young man willing to work. Day Kellogg Lee's rural novel begins with this choice between familiar affections and the effort of building an independent life.
Farm work and family ties share space with reflections on faith and the natural world. When mice and rabbits damage valuable trees, Fabens recognizes that the loss of wolves and foxes has upset the balance of the woods. A discussion with his wife turns that practical lesson into a consideration of gratitude and apparent misfortune.
