The experiences in Things Kept, Things Kept In back of explore the ambiguities of kept secrets, the tangles of left behind pasts, and uneasy accommodations. Jim Tomlinson's people each face the desire to reclaim dreams left out, along with something of the dreamer that was also lost. Starkly rendered, these spiraling people inhabit a particular place and school - small-town Kentucky, working-class America - but the stories, told in every their humor and tragedy, are universal. In each history the people face issue, sometimes within themselves, sometimes with one another.
