Items related to Home at Last: Stories
In Home at Last, a stunning collection of short fiction, an award-winning writer shares his compelling and introspective glimpses into real life.
Chet Kozlowski, a graduate of the Creative Writing M.F.A. Program at The City College of New York, offers thirteen vivid tales that illustrate the emotional challenges of ordinary characters placed in extraordinary situations. In each story, Kozlowski's characters confront their own unique dilemmas like the four-year-old boy who believes he can fly despite his parents' fears; the woman who travels far to reconnect with the child she abandoned years before; the writer who seeks salvation in a neighbor's unorthodox request; the wife who mulls secrets while studying her husband's sleeping form; and the mother who protects her children at all costs from a threat next door.
In his first collection of short stories, Kozlowski exposes a group of eclectic characters while weaving an unforgettable journey through their imperfect lives.
"As timely as last night's water-boarding or tomorrow morning's hurricane ... each episode explodes, creating immense but subtle drama."
-Wayne Greenhaw, author of King of Country and The Thunder of Angels
