Boarded Windows
Author: Dylan Hicks
Publisher: Coffee House Press
ISBN: 1566893089
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
"Do yourself a favor and read this smart, tender book. The characters will haunt you with their longing and inspire you with their sweet, caustic wit. Dylan Hicks knows his music and his prose is a song in itself."--Sam Lipsyte "A continually hilarious, hopes-dashed account of an indelible American character: the con man."--Greil Marcus Wade Salem is a charismatic aesthete, drug dealer, and journeyman country musician. He's also a complicated father figure to this novel's narrator, whose cloudy childhood becomes both clearer and more confusing through Wade's stories, jokes, and lectures. Through the eyes of a keenly observant, underemployed record collector, Wade emerges as a sly, disruptive force, at once seductive and maddening. Shifting between flashbacks from the seventies and nineties, Boarded Windows is a postmodern orphan story that explores the fallibility of memory and the weight of our social and cultural inheritance. Stylistically layered and searchingly lonesome, Dylan Hicks' debut novel captures the music and mood of the fading embers of America's boomer counterculture. Dylan Hicks is a songwriter, musician, and writer. His work has appeared in The Village Voice, The New York Times, Star Tribune, City Pages, and Rain Taxi, and he has released three CDs under his own name. A fourth, Sings Bolling Greene, is a soundtrack to this novel and will be released in May 2012. He lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with his wife Nina Hale and his son Jackson. This is his first novel.

Resurrection of Fort Lupton
Author: Arnold Hubert
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 146533582X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
Fort Lupton, Colorado, is a beautiful and friendly little farming community of approximately seven thousand five hundred people situated on US Highway 85, about twenty-nine miles north of Denver. It is situated in an area not quite designated as in the foothills, yet not far enough east to say its a plains town either (just somewhere in between). Summers are Rocky Mountain blue sky gorgeous, with spring temperatures ranging from seventy-five to over one hundred degrees in August and September. Wintertime can deal out twenty-four to thirty-six inches of snow or as little as twelve inches. There seems to be an area bordered on the west by Interstate 25, on the east by US 85, and on the south by Interstate 70, which is more arid year after year in more recent times. Rainfall in summers seems to be minimal, so many farmers irrigate their crops. The Fort Lupton area receives more than three hundred days of sunshine every year. I guess that the abundant sunshine is the main reason that I moved to Colorado in the first place.
