The heart of it all : a novel
(Book)

"Set in failing small town in central Ohio, [this novel] asks how one manages, in an America of increasing division, to find a sense of family and community. [It focuses] on the members of three families: the Baileys, a white family who have put down deep roots in the community; the Marwats, an immigrant family that owns the town's largest employer; and the Shaws, especially young Anthony, an outsider whose very presence gently shakes the town's understanding of itself"--,Provided by publisher.
