The crinkles remain throughout the narrative but are often eased due to colorful, often humorous characters sharing situations of suspense, romance, glee, terror, tragedy, passion, woe, and triumph.  The Groners struggle to help an estranged grandfather enter into everyday life.  Meanwhile Clydis and Clarence are tested to the brink by aging Civil War veterans.  Two vets are in the grip of alcohol and disease and one is coming out of amnesia that hides frightening war events regarding his brother.  Concomitantly, they nearly meet their match in unraveling the mystery of hubby demises at the swinery, the torrid boondoggle culminating in a struggle for life in a hog wallow.
