Heart Songs

Just outside the town, beyond the drugstore and the diner, there’s another world - a wilderness - waiting to be explored. On the high, hillsides there are deer to be stalked; grouse to be shot and traplines to be laid for fur. Here, in the blue-collar New England, the dispossessed working class is confronted with the bourgeoisie, and life revolves around hunting. As well as laying traps for each other - be it out of malice or misunderstanding - the men and women of these stories are all hunting for something better in place where survival is hard enough.
