A brilliant collection of short stories by first time author Skip Horack. All the stories take place over a one year period and are all set somewhere on or about the post Katrina and Rita Gulf Coast. This time and proximity is the only connection between the varied and richly depicted characters in their diverse lives, situations and social classes. An all too real snapshot of these post disaster Southerners as their lives continue. Well worth your effort to find and read. I certainly hope Mr. Horack has a novel in him working its way out!

The sixteen short stories featured in Skip Horack's prize-winning debut collection paint a richly textured vision of the American South. Set in the Gulf Coast over the course of a year torn halfway by the arrival of Hurricane Katrina, these stories, filled with humor, restraint, and verve, follow the lives of an assembly of unforgettable characters. An exonerated ex-con who may not be entirely innocent, a rabbit farmer in mourning, and an earnest young mariner trying to start a new life with his wife--all are characters that populate the spirited cities and drowsy parishes in Horack's marvelous portrait of the South. "A knockout winner" for guest judge Antonya Nelson, The Southern Cross marks the arrival of a standout new voice. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
