Description: "Like the view from a cracked wing mirror, each chapter reveals another sharp reflection of the characters who inhabit the Ails Valley. Revealed in fragments, their lives overlap and intertwine through decades. Gravel roads spotlights the psychological landscape of rural New Zealand in the raw which isn't always pretty but is always authentic. Humour and tragedy coexist for these unpretentious people of Ailsford, as their lives intersect, collide, fall apart and move on" --Back cover.
