Book Synopsis
Here are the stories of boys, mere children, waiting in the square to be hired by a rich farmer who comes and squeezes young muscles before making his choice. Here is talk of hard borders and heartache; the harsh life of the mill workers; the dark secrets of the river; a journey with the poet’s father on the last train to Sion Mills. This is a bittersweet, haunting love song to home.
