Summary

"Carlson takes us to a small town in Wyoming and into the lives of four men trying to make peace with who they are in the world. In high school, these men played together in a band; one of them, Jimmy Brand, left for New York City after the tragic death of his brother. An admired novelist, he has returned thirty years later, in 1999--because he is dying.... [W]e learn what has become of these old friends, and the different directions life has taken them.... The dreams and expectations of these men, realized and deferred, come whirling to the surface with Jimmy's return. And now that they are reunited, getting the band back together might be the most essential thing they can do."--Front flap of jacket
