Read The History of Now Storyline:
Small, almost imperceptible changes are rippling through the New England village of Grandville, altering it in ways its inhabitants cannot yet imagine. Laced through a narrative of one recent year in Grandvilles history are stories that reach back to a 17th century family in Rotterdam, an 18th century migration by a farmers lonely son in the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and a 19th century underground railway journey by a gifted runaway slave. Each episode comes to bear on Grandville now. As a portrayal of small town life, The History of Now is reminiscent of Richard Russos glorious novels about rural America. Its everyday encounters ring true, its dialogue glitters with wit, and its seamlessly integrated storylines create a consummate picture of one small place ineluctably connected to all places.Pages of The History of Now :
