Controlled Burn: Stories of Prison, Crime, and Men by Scott Wolven
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 0.26mb
Overview: Scott Wolven is such a talent, and his raw, blistering tales of hard-bitten convicts, dodgy informers, and men running from the law make for “the most exciting, authentic collection of short stories I have read in years,” says George Pelecanos. Brooding, edgy, and sometimes violent, Controlled Burn’s loosely linked stories are each in some way a distillation of hard time — spent either in prison, the backwoods of Vermont, or the badlands of the American West. Peopled by boxers, drunks, truck drivers, murderers, bounty hunters, drifters travelling under assumed names, and men whose luck ran out a thousand miles ago, these stories feel hard-won from life, and if they are moody and stark, so too are they filled with human longing.
Controlled Burn is divided into two sections: “The Northeast Kingdom” and “The Fugitive West.”
