        <description><![CDATA[When Summer says "Guidance came to me in the form of a greasy-haired lunatic", she is referring to Cletus, a neighbor boy who has befriended her and Ob and, in his inimitable way, is helping them deal with the grief of losing May (Chapter 6).

        <description><![CDATA[Orphaned as a small child, Summer is passed from relative to relative until she is taken in by Ob and May.  She spends six happy years with them in a little trailer in the West Virginia mountains, then May dies, and Summer watches as Ob struggles to go on without her.  One day, Ob tangibly feels May's spirit come to him, and desperately tries to reestablish connection, to no avail.  Summer's eccentric friend Cletus finds an artical about...]]></description>
