About the Author:
A contributing editor for Outside and Harper’s, Bob Shacochis has been a GQ columnist and writer for numerous other national publications. He is also the author of the novel, Swimming in the Volcano, a work of literary reportage about Haiti, The Immaculate Invasion, a second collection of stories, The Next New World, and a collection of essays on food and love, Domesticity. He lives in Florida and New Mexico.
Review:
"[Shacochis's] stories have an unselfconscious narrative momentum--a linear drive toward an ending--that I associate with the easy ways of an old master...I think this boy's been writing since he was a baby."
