In Victorian Berkshire, England, the author’s dying, abused and defeated ancestor Lenore tells her son George that she is not good enough for Heaven. Deeply dismayed, George spends ten years seeking a Christian faith which will not condemn her to Hell. Through three generations, three obsessive men undermine the lives of their wives and children. Alcoholism consumes the first of them and a distressing brand of religious piety takes over the next two. Unexpected financial problems arise and in 1913 George moves his family across the Atlantic in hopes of secure employment in Toronto, Canada. Like his unfortunate mother, George’s wife and daughter must function within their circumstances. Will their admirable stamina and courage make a difference?
