Expand description
As a boy in Depression-era Georgia, Harrison Durrance is entranced by the mysteries of women and the sky. As a young man he almost manages to solve them, flying combat missions during World War II and marrying a girl with red, pre-Raphaelite hair. But in the postwar years, Harrison sees his marriage and career dissolve in too much alcohol and too many one-night stands. And as she traces the swath this charismatic, self-destructive man cuts through the lives around him, Shearer creates a symphony of family love and sorrow that is also an elegy for America's lost youth.
