Aprašymas

Meadowland is a timely novel celebrating the dysfunctional complexity of commonplace lives in a small California town-a tour de force that delves deeply into the hubris of everyday life. Meadowland is populated with peculiar citizens, including the sociopathic, backsliding minister, an adulterous garbage collector who pairs with a wealthy physician's wife, a baseball-obsessed father who forces his love of the game on his young son, and a schizophrenic English teacher fighting desperately against personal demons. You'll meet brave children unearthing answers to life's toughest questions, and discover the driftwood of your childhood along the way.

Meadowland is a passionate, humorous, heartbreaking, allegorical rollercoaster ride. Beautifully written, it is burgeoning with cool morning hopes that dehydrate in the blazing sun by midday-an unforgettable, artistic rendering of the everyday (fight or flight) to find meaning in a world that is becoming increasingly irrational.
