In the rolling hills of southern Indiana, an elderly couple
copes with the fear that their river bottom farm the only home
they've ever known will be taken from them through an act of
eminent domain. The river flowing through their land, where the old
man has fished nearly every day of his life, may be dammed to form
a reservoir. Their son, meanwhile, sinks deeper into troubles of
his own, struggling to determine his place in a new romantic
relationship and the duty he owes to his family s legacy. What This
River Keeps is a beautiful and heartfelt novel that reflects upon
what it means to love a place and a family, and the sometimes
staggering cost of that love."
