Overview: "In Corpus Christi, Texas – a town often hit by hurricanes – parents, children, and lovers come together and fall apart, bonded and battered by memories of loss that they feel as acutely as physical pain."
"A car accident joins strangers linked by an intimate knowledge of madness. A teenage boy remembers his father’s act of sudden and self-righteous violence. A "hurricane party" reunites a couple whom tragedy parted. And, in an unforgettable three-story cycle, an illness sets in profound relief a man’s relationship with his mother and the odd, shifting fidelity of truth to love."
These narratives explore the complex volatility of love and intimacy, sorrow and renewal – and expose how often these experiences feel like the opposite of themselves. From the woman whose young son’s uncanny rapport with snakes illuminates her own missed opportunities, to the man confronting his wife and her lover in a house full of illegal exotic birds, all the characters here face moments of profound decision and recognition in which no choice is clearly or completely right.
