Many of us Appalachian transplants have a complicated relationship with the concept of "home" that we struggle with defining or really understanding. This story about home is straight forward and not unnecessarily wordy but still raw and emotional.
The story of Cassidy, cam girl in modern-day SoCal; Paloma, Fulbright scholar in newly Westernized Prague; Jane, farm girl working at the FBI in DC during WWII. Each leaves Appalachia to find a new life, only to be pulled back to the land they know.
