Winner of the 2014 International Book Awards in Fiction: Best New Fiction "A standout novel about going home, where old girlfriends, awkward funerals, deeply buried parental secrets and naked, drunken, nocturnal escapades irritate a man like scabs of his squandered youth and misspent adulthood. When Chase returns to his hometown in the Poconos, his father has just died, his wife has left him, he lost his job as a journalist, and his sister wastes away in a mental institution. He's grappling with addictions to sex and alcohol as well as, closer to the surface, a problem with rage, most frequently expressed with dripping sarcasm. It's that sarcasm that gives this bleak, sometimes violent book its surprising levity. Jarrett (More Towels, 2002) seamlessly combines dark comedy with real tragedy and pathos, a hat trick comparable to that of certain movies with similar themes-Zach Braff 's Garden State, for instance, or Diablo Cody's Young Adult....Chase remains an enthralling, completely believable character, and readers who share his sensibilities will writhe and laugh in empathy as he seeks to retie his unraveling life. Ruthlessly brilliant writing brings grace to a story smoldering in pain." -Kirkus Reviews
