A Permanent Member of the Family / Russell Banks

Livre

Russell Banks

Edité par The Clerkenwell Press. London , 2015

Suffused with Russell Banks's trademark lyricism and reckless humor, the twelve stories in A Permanent Member of the Family examine the myriad ways we try (and sometimes fail) to connect with one another, as we seek a home in the world. In the title story, a father looks back on the legend of the cherished family dog whose divided loyalties mirrored the fragmenting of his marriage. "A Former Marine" asks, to chilling effect, if one can ever stop being a parent. And in the haunting, evocative "Veronica", a mysterious woman searching for her daughter may not be who she claims she is.
