description: Fiction. "Beth Bosworth sets her stories in the labyrinth of family life, bravely exploring its dark turns and heartstopping entanglements. The minds of her characters are self haunted with their memories, and what is imagined as the past is as crucially immediate as the present. A BURDEN OF EARTH is the debut of a gifted writer--someone to watch"--E. L. Doctorow.
