Description

"Dell is a taxi driver who lives on the outskirts of town memory until she leaves behind two lovers - one male, one female - and a small town populated by characters whose desires to touch each other - and in odd ways, to touch Dell herself - are thwarted by their human inability to know themselves or reveal themselves to each other. Dell is revealed to us through the stories of townspeople whose obsessions - both petty and grand - are told with Carol Guess's remarkable clarity and show more thoughtfulness."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
