Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Forty years after the suicide of his best friend's father, a writer revisits the tragedy and tries to unravel the mystery behind one man's inexplicable actions on that icy January day in 1961. Through his own recollections and his fiction-sometimes impossible to separate-he attempts to make sense of a senseless act and, in the process, to examine his youth, his connection to his best friend, Gene, and the enigma of Marie, a beautiful girl whose heart once belonged to both of them and whose spell still lingers through the decades.

He has established himself as one of the leading poetic realists, painting his stories across the canvas of interiors: small-town America and the human heart.-San Jose Mercury News, on Orchard.…
