Resumen del Editor
Hack Holland is a product of the South, both old and new. Hard-drinking ex-POW and wealthy, progressive Democrat, he stands in the long shadow cast by his ancestors.

After the stunning historical novels The Clearing and The Missing, Tim Gautreaux now ranges freely through contemporary life with 12 new stories and eight from previous collections. Most are set in his beloved Louisiana, many hard by or on the Mississippi River, others in North Carolina, and even in midwinter Minnesota. But generally it's heat, humidity, and bugs that beset his people as they wrestle with affairs of the heart, matters of faith, and the pros and cons of tight-knit communities.

Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

On this pitiless world, the indomitable spirit of mankind still breathes in Lieutenant David Valentine.

Annie Proulx's masterful language and fierce love of Wyoming are evident in this collection of stories about loneliness, quick violence, and wrong kinds of love. In "The Mud Below", a rodeo rider's obsession marks the deepening fissures between his family life and self-imposed isolation. In "The Half-Skinned Steer", an elderly fool drives west to the ranch he grew up on for his brother's funeral, and dies a mile from home.

Not the best, but good for background
I am puzzled by the combination of profound poetry and humiliating torture in these books. Not sure where the author is going with this.
Redemption, yes, but how exactly?
Anyway, despite its rather greater limitations than most of JLB's books, this one sets the stage for the recent Holland novels to good effect. By chance I had just read Robert Caro's volumes on Lyndon Johnson, so the depths of Texas politics came as no surprise.
One of the great strengths of the Robichaux books is Dave's bromance with Clete Purcell. I miss a best bud in the Holland series.
