A series of interconnected stories includes Where the Devil Lost His Blanket, in which a woman is asked to transport a late stranger's ashes to South America; The Dowry, in which a woman confronts her painful past during her father's final illness; and The Spring House, in which a divorcee becomes the guardian of local secrets.
"Catherine Tudish's Tenney's Landing conjures up a place and a people with that magical vividness we found in Porter, Welty, Cheever, and Updike. Until I read these stories, I had thought that twenty-first-century fiction could only tell us how we've lost the freshness of our lives on this continent and how our New World has grown old. What a gift it is, then, that this modestly brilliant writer returns us to the great American river!"-- David Huddle, author of The Story of a Million Years and La Tour Dreams of the Wolf Girl
