Produktbeschreibung
In this striking debut collection, characters find unexpected moments of profound insight while navigating daily life. "Clouther's first collection of stories shows an 'old' talent-meaning, his sophistication in treatment and technique and his wise observations of the human condition have the feel of an author who has the experience of several story collections behind him.”-Booklist, starred review "Sharply observed."-Toronto Star "The 10 entries in Clouther's debut collection all display a sure-handed grasp of craft."-Publishers Weekly In this striking debut collection, characters find unexpected moments of profound insight while navigating the monotony of daily life. Here we find a man who drives to the wrong mountain, a hubcap cleaner who moonlights as a karaoke star, and a deliveryman whose urgent letters have no willing recipient. While lulled by the deceptively simple rhythm of the ordinary, Kevin Clouther offers the instant before momentous change-the view over the cliff, the intake of breath before a decision, a glimpse of stark vulnerability, of faith and hope.
