Description
Like the Puritan-era narratives she studies, Hannah Guttentag's early-1990s narrative is a chronicle of the strange places she travels -- Nashville, Ithaca, New Orleans, Cleveland, Nebraska -- the savages who captivate her -- librarians, grad students, professors, her baby -- and the redemption she earns.
Josh Russell's previous novels are
Yellow Jack and
My Bright Midnight. An Illinois native -- born in Carbondale, raised in Normal -- he now lives in Decatur, Georgia with his wife and daughter.
