Somewhat True Tales of Jackson Hole — Tim Sandlin

Twice each year for the nearly thirty years now Tim Sandlin has emerged for his shell to compose stories of the real Wyoming for the Jackson Hole Magazine. Tim and his cast from his strange yet sometimes lovable extended fantasy family argue, pontificate, love, and occasionally snark on the issues facing our beautiful valley. They love Jackson Hole as only a true family can love - quick to condemn, quick to forgive. As tight and funny as anyone doing this comedy-novel thing. Christopher Moore author of Lamb and Fool Sandlin can see that there is a kind of gruesome comedy in what happens to us, but the humor is never mean, and he loves his people too much not to understand that their grief and frustration and nostalgia are real. Nick Hornby author of High Fidelity and Juliet, Naked Funny, shocking, downright revolting, and occasionally sad, Sandlin is a compelling storyteller. The Los Angeles Times Book Review I recommend Tim Sandlin to the world. Drew Barrymore
