Summary:
With some encouragement from the local host and guide, the novel's "you" imagines a different destiny for Cecilia Farmer: not an Alabama hill farm, but something commensurate with the openness and promise of the American West. The novel ends with her signature on the jail window, her affirmation that she (like the past that has been evoked) was here.
