In Crum, a gritty coal town on the West Virginia-Kentucky border,
the boys fight, swear, chase and sometimes catch girls. The adults
are cramped in and clueless, hemmed in by the mountains. The weight
of wonder, dejection, and even possibility loom over this tiny,
suffocating town. This story is the tale of Jesse Stone, who
doesn't know where he's going, but knows he is leaving, and whose
rebellion against the people and the place of his childhood allows
him to reject the comfort and familiarity of his home in search of
his place in a larger world.
