Book excerpt: "In Cynthia Lang's collection of nine short stories it becomes apparent that a legacy is not always as tangible as a mahogany chest or a summer cabin; or even predetermined, much less recognized by those giving or receiving. 'Devoid of weight, of volume, some [legacies] take up no room at all. On a journey, for instance, nothing may change hands but the tickets.' Traveling through the lives of intriguing and oftentimes enlightening characters ... nine characters, each inheriting a legacy and collectively handing one on to the reader, composed of remnants from past lives, a natural history that has the power to reveal current truths and predict future realities."--Page [4] cover.
