A Wall Of Bright Dead Feathers: Stories

Each of the flawed, fully human characters we meet in these twelve stories faces a moment of life-altering transformation. Most are newcomers to rural life whose charms they dream about, even as the troubles they hoped to leave behind persist. A young pianist struggles to keep her emotionally fragile boyfriend alive; a family flees financial scandal in Houston; a displaced New Yorker's ambivalence about guns results in two fractured families; and so on. The silent partner in every story is the scenic, rolling landscape of the German-Czech region of Central Texas, evocative of nature in all its beauty and hardship.
