Publisher's Synopsis
In this collection of stories influenced by parables and folk tales, an aging man falls in love with a young woman he cannot have as a hedge against mortality, a molested child seeks comfort in searching for an imaginary baby, and a truck driver keeps finding his way back to a home that doesn't exist for him anymore. Filled with yearning and sexuality and often laced with humor, these tales focus on characters struggling to tend their own vineyards of the spirit.
