A strange attempt at an Anne Tyler-style family saga, hampered by a pervasive emotional detachment. The characters aren't sufficiently developed for their actions to make sense - and it's also one of those irritating stories in which all the girls get pregnant immediately and/or get married unfeasibly young. Interesting Catholic undercurrent, though.
