Description
In the small Texas town of Thalia, the arrival of a wealthy philanthropist and her ambitious plan to establish a sanctuary for endangered African rhinos unsettles the community and draws longtime residents into unexpected encounters. Against this eccentric backdrop, an aging Duane Moore confronts loneliness, old prejudices, and the shifting meanings of home, family, and purpose. With wry humor and compassionate insight, the novel uses the rhinos—and the people who surround them—as a mirror for human folly, isolation, resilience, and the search for lasting connection. The result is a quietly moving, richly observed portrait of a town and its inhabitants at a crossroads.
