Hugo, a gentle red-haired, home-schooled giant, is also in love with Kismet. He's determined to steal her and is eager to be a home wrecker. Kismet's mother Crystal hauls sugar beets for Gary's family, and on her nightly runs, tunes into the darkness of late-night radio, sees visions of guardian angels, and worries for the future--her daughter's and her own. Human time, deep time, Red River time, the half-life of herbicides and pesticides, and the elegance of time represented in fracking core samples from unimaginable depths, is set against the speed of climate change, the depletion of natural resources, and the sudden economic meltdown of 2008-2009. How much does a dress cost? A used car? A package of cinnamon rolls? Can you see the shape of your soul in the everchanging clouds? Your personal salvation in the giant expanse of sky? These are the questions the people of the Red River Valley of the North wrestle with every day"--cProvided by publisher. 0aIndians of North AmericavFiction.99113 0aHuman ecologyvFiction.918540 0aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009vFiction.918541 0aLove trianglesvFiction.918542 0aMan-woman relationshipsvFiction.95884 0aClimatic changesvFiction.918543 0aConservation of natural resourcesvFiction.918544 0aLarge type books.93808 0aRed River Valley (Minn. and N.D.-Man.)vFiction.918545 0aNorth DakotavFiction.918546 a.b207294240 2ddccBOOK c30144d30144 2ddc4070aABELJbABELJcLPd2024-10-16g36.00l0oERDRp66597r2024-10-16w2024-10-16yBOOK11
