In the shadow of the Boeing plant where the first commercial jet
liner was assembled, a family lives in a house in a rural landscape
filled with stumps, streams chocked with the dead salmon, and no
one who can help. The sixties in Renton, Washington were a mix of
jet age technology and subsistence farming. Roger Carnation at an
electrical engineer, or double e, is a stepfather who regards his
new family as an acquisition. He has daughters to train to do what
he needs. He has a wife to clean house and prepare food. He has a
son to train as a replacement man. The novel is told through the
five points of view as the story advances toward its inevitable
end.
