"Elizabeth and After tells the story of Carl McKelvey, who in midlife returns to the small town of West Gull, Ontario, to mend his family's legacy of alcohol and violence, to reconnect with his young daughter, and to reconcile himself with the spirit of his beautiful mother, killed several years earlier in a tragic accident. Carl's only problem is that West Gull won't have him. Hesitant to forgive his family's tragic legacy, the community still remembers his mother's radiant warmth, her popularity, and the suspicious circumstances of her passing. What Carl will soon realize is that the difficult truths of who he was and is will one day be met in full, and it is up to his own heart, and the hearts of those in West Gull, to finally allow him a measure of forgiveness.". "Elizabeth and After wraps us up in the lives of Carl and his family, and the other 683 residents of this snowy Canadian hamlet, as they all struggle to recognize the vagaries of the past and their own power to correct the present."--BOOK JACKET.
