Description
Tom Harry's bar, The Medicine Lodge, is a place of refuge in the small town of Gros Ventre. Tom has a son, Rusty, who lives with him, and together they have formed an unlikely family unit. However, when Rusty turns twelve, his life is about to change forever. A new presence arrives in the form of Proxy, a taxi dancer from Tom's past, and her daughter Francine. This unexpected arrival brings a sense of uncertainty and passion into Rusty's life, forcing him to confront the complexities of his family's history and the future that lies ahead. As the summer of 1960 unfolds, Tom's world becomes increasingly entwined with the past, making it difficult for Rusty to distinguish between reality and illusion. The Bartender's Tale is a poignant exploration of how the world expands and the past deepens in the final moments of childhood.
