About
Notes Toward a Family Tree wrestles with the question of what constitutes a family in our age of shifting values. Writing with lyrical and political intensity, John Barton explores the difficulty of forming a family (nuclear, extended, or chosen) and a society to which we all can belong, in which we can experience love for one another.
