From the National Book Award-finalist: This "brilliant" story collection exploring the lives of dispossessed Americans is "one of his best achievements" ( The Washington Post). Thematically focused on hard-luck characters trapped by desperate circumstances, Bell once again showcases his range and versatility in these eleven deeply felt stories. Whether in the Deep South or the grim Northeast; burdened with unspoken hurts or challenged by the harsh vicissitudes of contemporary life, Bell's characters are drawn with clear-eyed compassion and dignity. But even in their gritty realism, moments of redemption or hopefulness elevate each of these memorable stories. And when the setting moves into the Great Plains during the nineteenth century, Bell convincingly connects the past to the present, hinting at his later acclaim as a historical novelist. Zero db stands as a timeless collection of "sagacious and lucid short stories by a contemporary writer with an ear for the seemingly inaudible emotions of life" ( Los Angeles Times).
