description: In this wise and graceful story collection, each character is intimately linked to the land in and around Cloten, Minnesota. We meet a woman who returns home to care for her family's farm, a man whose obsession with bow hunting affects his life in complex ways, and a farmer's son who plays a dangerous game of drag-racing roulette. Light in the Crossing is a beautifully crafted portrait of the relationships people in farming towns build with one another and the land on which they depend.
