Lewis' only collection of short fiction was first published in 1946, but remains as quietly haunting today as it was then. Set in small communities of the upper Midwest and northern California in the '30s and '40s, these midcentury gems focus on the quiet cycles connecting youth and age, despair and hope, life and death.
