As the elderly hero of Thomas Rayfiel's daring new novel, In Pinelight, sits in an old folks home responding to the questions of an unseen interrogator, the fragments he supplies form the portrait of a man's life in upstate New York.

Rayfiel seeks to capture the essence of historical forces and to illuminate the inescapable truths we would rather not see.
