Young Miss Gussie, like all the women in her family, did what she had to do when death came to her kitchen door. And the women in her family were: Gussie's daughter Dorothy, who married a small shopkeeper in the hope that money would cure her pride and a terrible jealousy; the plucky Clancy Jane, so sweet you'd never expect her to get into trouble, and whose life is clouded by the dark cloud of Vietnam; and her granddaughters: the unattractive but clever Violet, who longs for the mother and father she barely knew; and little Bitsy, who seeks a way out of her limited life and eccentric family.
