    Summary

    In the bitter January of 1953, a woman drives six hundred miles through snow to a furnished room above the railroad yards in Cincinnati. For one night only, two lives that were broken apart by scandal and a child’s custody converge again in a small space lit by a red safelight and the passing freight trains. Nothing is resolved. Everything is remembered.

    Some distances are measured in miles. Others are measured in the exact shape a hollow place takes when the person who once filled it stands three feet away and says it is cold.
