These are stories about the past as it wasn’t quite, but might have been, from ancient battlefields all the way up through roadside attractions off I-70. They’re about the people caught in the mean jaws of history: the women and workers, the soldiers and mothers, everyone shoved into the margins of the world.
But these aren’t tragedies – these are the stories of the ones that got away. The ones who defected and dissented, who broke the rules, who ran and tossed a match behind them.
