For All the Obvious Reasons
Author: Lynn Stegner
Publisher: Skyhorse Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1628726423
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
For All the Obvious Reasons is Lynn Stegner’s superb collection of nine, remarkably distinct tales of passion, clear-eyed wisdom, and honesty honed to a cutting edge. These are stories the reader can’t shake: A woman living a marital shadow-life realizes that her long compensating heart has begun to ominously decompensate. An affluent New Yorker becomes a hoarder to escape a future he cannot bear to take up. A baby dies in a miasma of sibling resentments and from that, the secrets of culpability unravel. A construction worker and a bereaved young neighbor together find a way to be in a broken world. And in the beautifully moving narrative that closes the volume, a story about the depth of goodness and duty, and of the profound love they both define and prevent. From the wild rivers of British Columbia to the cement jungle of Manhattan, Stegner pulls us from our own worlds into her own. With luminous particulars and in richly orchestrated language, these stories sound the vibrant, sometimes anguished music that composes human lives. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

The Sum of My Works
Author: John Keck
Publisher: Fulton Books, Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
"Things roll downhill, energy dissipates, disorder increases. Things wear out, break, fall apart." Jimmy Doyle describes his life as a mechanic in these terms, but these hard truths better describe the thirty-year story of the Doyle brothers as told in The Sum of My Works. On the eve of the Cuban Missile crisis, the lives of Jimmy and Patrick Doyle are shattered as surely as if the button had been pushed. Together and apart, the brothers experience the fear and uncertainty of intergenerational trauma, the justice system, incarceration, and the Vietnam War as well as the heady 1960s counterculture, the anti-war movement, exile, wilderness, and survival against overwhelming odds. Through it all, the brothers search for the human connections they've lost, as they struggle against the inexorable forces arrayed against them until they must face yet another personal apocalypse--and betrayal of their brotherhood.
