Summary
June came to the city on the back of hopes and dreams.
Now, a year later, she finds herself having to confront the reality of her failures, of the inability of her talent to raise her any higher than the levels of abject despair and poverty. Ready to call it a day, she makes the decision to travel back to her small-town Michigan home in the least conventional way possible.
She decides to walk home.
In the course of her long journey, in her most vulnerable and solitary moments, she finds what she had come to believe no longer existed. She finds kindness. She finds generosity.
She finds the promise of all things that still could be possible.
Author's note: This story was originally published in the collection Borrowed Time: And Other Tales. It is presented here as a stand-alone title, following some additional, minor editorial attention.
