Publisher Description: From a new voice in American fiction come tales of men whose language is grief, whose off-center lives expose the difficulty of being whole in a world they cannot understand.
Set in the spare, unforgiving landscapes of rural New England and rural Texas, Timothy Westmoreland's stories explore the reality of life among the ill and the dying, the disadvantaged and those unfit for life except in the margins. They examine the individual moment, those times when people create fiction in their lives just to survive, soothing the ache that permeates their being. Dark and funny, these stories tell wrenching truths about being men and being whole. Reminiscent of the work of Russell Banks, they announce a major new writer of immense talent.
