Kathy Katacowski feels like she is the town crazy, but questions what everyone else considers normal. A little peace and quiet and a little acceptance is all she is looking for, but it is unavailable as those around her seek their own meaning to life. It is not a surprise where she ends up when her husband, her sister's family and her former lover have thier beliefs threatened. Clashes arise from accusations of pollution, homosexuality and marital infidelity, but most surprising is the way some resolutions are come to.
