"In the summer, tourists came to the pond to see the early-morning lilies in bloom. But in the winter, the pond belongs to the locals - especially Elizabeth's mother, whose skating is her genius, and the fishermen's sons, who play hockey there. It is at the pond that the accident happens - an accident that will change them all. Dreams will dissipate; attachments will break apart; and family memories will be cast in shadows. In the end it will be abandonment that Elizabeth must endure. Loss of a tormented father, loss of a loving mother, and eventually the loss of a worldly and unforgettable lover."--BOOK JACKET.
