Book Description
"Set in the steel mill regions of Chicago and in Northwest Indiana, the story centers on Borich?s return to a decimated landscape for a misbegotten wedding in which her spouse?s father marries his high school sweetheart. The book is a lilting journey into an ill-fated moment, where families attempt to find communion in tense gathering spaces and across their most formative disappointments. Borich tells the story of the industrial heartland that produced the steel that made American cities, but also one of the most toxic environmental sites in the world."--Page 2 of cover.
