Aprašymas

Laird Hunt's masterful story collection capturing one summer's day in an Indiana farming community, 1982.

Longlisted for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction

Candy Wilson has forgotten to buy the paprika. Turner Davis needs to get his zinnias in. Della Dorner told her mother she was going to the Galaxy Swirl, but that's not where she's really headed on her new Schwinn five-speed.

Float Up, Sing Down is the story of a single day. But in that day, how much teeming life! Retired sheriffs climb corn bins and muse on lost love, French teachers throw firecrackers out of barn windows, and teenagers borrow motorcycles to ride the back roads.

Featuring a new character and story exclusive to the paperback edition, Float Up, Sing Down unfolds in one of Hunt's most beloved and enduring landscapes. This is a symphony of souls, a masterful community portrait by one of our great limners of American experience.
