Synopsis
This low-key portrait of its main character, Patty Dickerson, is outstanding for its deep and compassionate understanding of her situation. Patty is married to Tommy, who received a sentence of 25 years to life for participating in a robbery in which a woman was killed. During that time--which turns out to be 28 years--Patty gives birth to their son and does her best to raise him while she works at low-end jobs, copes with her difficult family, and braves the dehumanizing prison system to stay in touch with her husband. In the course of her ordeal, Patty finds strengths she didn't know she had, and struggles to pass them on to her son.

Industry Reviews
"Patty...lives her commitment to her marriage every day for 28 years, and we believe in it because we believe in the fully dimensional, ordinary but extraordinary character O'Nan has created....Another fine effort from a writer who in ten years has crafted nine novels dramatically different in tone and content but impressively consistent in their moral seriousness and artistic conviction."
Kirkus (01/15/2005)

"O'Nan has completely captured Patty Dickerson and her dogged determination to endure in this sad but strangely hopeful story."
Publishers Weekly (02/28/2005)
