The Fires

Paperback

Price: $10.00

Overview

Finely-honed portraits of hope and change, these two novellas are linked so skillfully that they achieve the intensity of a single novel in which some characters succeed and others fail on separate but equally compelling quests. In The Fires, Gina Morgan makes a pilgrimage to Uzbekistan to carry out her husband’s final wish–to be cremated–only to find herself entirely at sea in the strange new reality of the former Soviet republic, while in The Exorcism, Tom Swanson begins to make sense of his life when he retrieves his angry daughter from her exclusive New England college after her expulsion for setting fire to a grand piano.

The two novellas that make up The Fires–one of sorrow and one of radiance–are filled with characters trying to maneuver that space between creation and destruction. –Ana Menendez, author, Loving Che and In Cuba I Was a German Shepherd
