Summary

In 1967, a young married mother of three abruptly discovers she feels a sexual attraction for another woman. Her marriage erupts in violence, and her family is thrown into chaos.

Narrated in third person, this is the opening story of Barbara Ritchie's memoir. From there, the author uses first person - often present tense - sharing dramatic points of her life that shaped her; but, as shards, the pieces fall where they may.

he 12 stories and vignettes in this collection are all true, though the names and some locales have been changed.
