In the summer of 1966 a man takes up residence in a small town in Michigan. He is a teacher of "special needs" children and while plying his profession in a local school he becomes a friend and mentor to a neighbour who recently lost his father.
As a result of this relationship and his interaction with other characters, the man's history is revealed. His life proves to be as complicated and diverse as the students he is responsible for. From the Irish Revolution to Vietnam, the novel weaves its way through some of the most interesting epochs of the twentieth century. As the paths of characters' lives are crossed and conflicts arise, a young autistic girl is awakened from her fog. Through her enthralling imagination and resourcefulness, she drives the story to its compelling conclusion.
