The final chapter in the saga of Sailor Ripley and Lula Pace Fortune. Their story began in Gifford's Wild at Heart, which in 1990 was made into a Palme d'Or-winning feature film by David Lynch. Following Sailor's death at the age of 65 in New Orleans, Lula moves back home to North Carolina. This novel begins 15 years later when Lula, now aged 80, decides to write a memoir reflecting her life with Sailor and describing her last road trip. Like a contemporary book of Revelations, it becomes a bittersweet, often dangerous, journey into the imagination of the heart.
