Sequoyah Hills
No Customer Reviews
Ranging in settings from the foothills of rural Appalachia to the upper-class wealth of privileged New England to the raging battlefields of World War I, this collection of stories examines the lives of men and women struggling to overcome hardship, misfortune, and their own limitations and failures. In the title story, "Sequoyah Hills," a young protagonist must take care of his aging grandmother, and as he begins to understand that her decline is inevitable, he also recognizes that even his smallest decisions may play a determining role in his life. "Thelmadore" follows the increasing despair of a man coming to grips with his inability to ever make amends for past mistakes; "Durham News" depicts a man trying hopelessly to live on the edge of two very different lives. The final story, "Piece by Piece," concerns a protagonist gradually allowing his destiny to be determined more and more by forces beyond his control. Stark, honest, and unrelenting, these Fourteen stories illuminate the compelling nature of everyday lives-people lost in the mad scramble simply to find and be themselves.
