Set against the backdrop of a changing America, the story explores the lives of Mary and John Keane as they navigate marriage and parenthood within a traditional Catholic framework. Their children, however, are swept into the tumult of the 1960s and 70s, facing challenges that diverge from their parents' values. The narrative delves into themes of family dynamics, the impact of societal shifts, and the complexities of love and faith as Mary and John grapple with their children's struggles and their own unfulfilled desires.
