Fiction. A BOTTLE OF RAIN is a kind of love story involving a mute clown, a blind gypsy fortune-teller, FBI agents, an award-winning poet told to teach fiction, and the last Kickapoo Indian girl born in Champaign County, who has returned to the Land of Lincoln in search of her parents. You'll get a brief history of computers, a not so brief history of the Kickapoo Indian Tribe (told in an unorthodox manner), andrevisionist view of Abraham Lincoln.
