Her husband, Gordon, respected in the community but a controlling presence at home, intends for her to follow a long-standing family tradition and name the baby after him. But when faced with the decision, Cora hesitates....\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpanning thirty-five years, what follows are three alternate and alternating versions of their lives, shaped by Cora's last-minute choice of name.
