Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned - Wells Tower

Descriere Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned - Wells Tower

In Tower's debut collection of stories, families fall apart and messily try to reassemble themselves in an America that is touched by the seamy splendor of the dropout, the misfit, boozy dreamers, hapless fathers, and wayward sons. \n \nA NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITORS' CHOICE \n \nViking marauders descend on a much-plundered island, hoping some mayhem will shake off the winter blahs. A man is booted out of his home after his wife discovers that the print of a bare foot on the inside of his car's windshield doesn't match her own. Teenage cousins, drugged by summer, meet with a reckoning in the woods. A boy runs off to the carnival after his stepfather bites him in a brawl. Wells Tower's version of America is touched with the seamy splendor of the dropout, the misfit: failed inventors, boozy dreamers, hapless fathers, wayward sons. With electric prose and savage wit, Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned is a profound new collection of stories.\n
