内容简介：
Itas in the Blood takes you from a chance meeting along a river named Pearl, through railroad towns, oil boom towns and cotton fields, to a conclusion that will leave you with tears in your eyes and a smile on your face. This look at the lives of George and Etter Pickle will explore a question: If we are predisposed to respond to events, conditions, and circumstances in a particular way, can we consciously alter that predisposition? As these soul-mates make their journey through the early twentieth century, they struggle to find their way from being who they were born to be to becoming who they want to be. They meet every challenge and traverse every barrier without looking back, and they discover along the way that if you live life to the fullest, give as good as you get, and always reach for the gold ring, none of the other stuff really matters.
