First sentence: A thin gray wisp of fog weaves up over the hill like her grandfather's cigarette smoke used to snake from his gnarled yellow fingers as he sat out on the steps at twilight next to the wooden slider where her big brother rocked and rocked and never talked even in daytime, and Mama in her house-dress danced around the room humming a tune and Papa stared right past her from his torn leather chair in the corner of the parlor, stared out to the woods where the moon always began.
