Inhaltsangabe

The family ends up a cowboy town, two hours away, where the largest earthen rolled dam in the world is being constructed by multitudes of sexy young construction workers, fueled with the exuberance of too much money and easy access to drugs and alcohol.

There is 24-hour bedlam, there including “those kinds of women.” Evelyn witnesses many drunken brawls including one where a man gets his throat cut.

She receives mysterious messages in the dark, voices who tell her evil and nefarious things. She hates God because when Evelyn was 7 years old her Daddy told her “if you fight with your brothers God will take one of them away. At age 9 her baby brother died devastates her, as she’s haunted by her Daddy’s words.

She has four brothers left whom she feels she must protect, but how?

She experiences being bullied by the kids in high school. She could follow her mother’s direction and be docile and rise above it or she could follow her inclinations to be a fighter and she vacillates between the two before the rebel wins.

Evelyn wears white buck shoes starched crinoline skirts and dances like there is no tomorrow.

She listens to Elvis and loses herself in movies. She teaches herself to drive, works and goes to high school. At age 13 she is assaulted by a boss. Then again at 17, she is assaulted by a different employer (she threatened that pervert with a butcher knife). During this time she is learning about the magic of alcohol and the way it takes away the pain.

Throughout her formative years, she makes a series of attempts to please her distant mother and her alcoholic father, occasionally it works. “How did Daddy go from my kind gentle daddy to my torturous verbal abuser?”

She is searching for love and romance everywhere she goes. Always aware of the voices that hovered around her.
