The events that shape one's heritage extend far into the past. For Colm, awareness of his people's history is especially vivid. Their struggles form a pattern for his own, with inherent strengths to be drawn on and old vexations to be dealt with. He rises above his stationbut then must face unfamiliar threats in his new milieu.

The ten stories in this collection concern people from a variety of backgrounds, and sometimes from past or future eras. As they struggle with challenges they meet, they often encounter conflicting values, requiring them to fashion standards for their actions.
