At once a coming-of-age tale and a baffling tragedy, "Every Minute Is a Suicide" follows a son's journey into middle age from boyhood in the aftermath of his father's mysterious disappearance. In spare but poignant prose, these nineteen stories capture the disappointment that follows on the false promises of childhood as the boy navigates painful family Sunday dinners and his first dance, an Ivy-League education, dead-end jobs and self-sabotaged love affairs. He longs for acceptance but feels at odds with friends, lovers, family and himself. His sorrow and confusion culminate in a profound spiritual crisis in the dark, frigid months of a Yukon winter. With clarity and a keen eye, leavened by dry wit, these stories explore the struggle to make sense of the world-and to find one's place in it.
