Publisher's Synopsis
"This is prime American fiction-tough, generous, and open-eyed."
-ALYSON HAGY, author of Boleto
"Maynard's debut collection bursts with idiosyncratic characters…packs a strong emotional punch."
-PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Convicts round up wild mustangs, a schizophrenic homeless man wins the jackpot and disappears, a truck driver with a child's mind spends his last hours in the embrace of a prostitute's photos. Disparate and vivid, Mark Maynard's characters intersect in the new wild west of Reno, Nevada.
