| Summary |
Candy has forgotten to buy the paprika, Turner needs to get his zinnias in, Della told her mother she was going to the Galaxy Swirl, but that's not where she's really headed. A retired sheriff climbs a corn bin and muses on lost love, a French teacher throws firecrackers out a barn window, and a teenager borrows a motorcycle to ride the back roads. Gossip is paramount, lives are entwined. This is the story of a single day, where the residents of a rural Indiana town have their routines, their preferences, their joys, grudges, and regrets. |
