Set in a fictional subdivision in Appalachia, the story revolves around the Miles family, created by a real-estate developer. As he documents their lives in the Garden Springs neighborhood of Lexington, Kentucky, the narrative explores the family's dynamics amidst the social upheaval of the 1960s and 1970s. Each family member—Jean, Constance, and their children—competes for narrative space, leading to a blurring of fiction and reality. As the developer's son, Junior, contemplates his father's legacy, he grapples with love and identity in this metafictional exploration of family and existence.
