This is a short story book by Dan Chaon, a writer from Nebraska. Looks like grew up in way out western NE around Sidney and a lot of these stories have that feel from being out that way. The sort of desolate sandhills of that part of NE seems to bring out writers--I enjoy Mari Sandoz and Poe Ballantine that were also writing of that area. Some of the stories were a little out there but generally liked them--easy to read and have memorable parts in them.
I have posted it on PBS & is the only copy in system so maybe get requested at some point.
