具体描述

After the loss of their mother, the Jones children--Larken, Gaelan, and Bonnie--have grown into adulthood under the shadow of unresolved grief and become encased in town myth. Everyone in Emlyn Springs, Nebraska, knows the story of Aneira Hope Jones, the woman swallowed up by a tornado, never to return to earth, and of the painful legacy bestowed on her children, always longing for the gift of their mother's bones, for a release from the past and their identities as motherless children. They have, both knowingly and unknowingly, condemned themselves to the task of interpreting and paying homage to the story of their mother's life; thus they have never claimed their own. Sing Them Home will delight readers with its warmth, humor, and wisdom.
