| 简介 | 编辑推荐 "George Singleton is a madman. He’s also one of the most talented American writers the South has turned out in decades." --THE POST AND COURIER (Charleston, SC) 内容推荐 Acclaimed short-story master George Singleton follows the lives and schemes of the citizens of fictitious Gruel,South Carolina, in search of glory, seclusion, money, revenge, and a meaningful existence. In these nineteen tales, young Gruelites learn lessons when confronted with neighbors who might not be’as blind as they appear, dermatologists intent on eradicating birthmarks, and fathers prone to driving on half-inflated tires in order to flirt with cashiers. Meanwhile, the town’s older citizens try to make sense out of dogs that heal wounds, lawn-mowing dead men, wives who don’t appreciate gas masks for Valentine’s Day, and children who mix their mother’s ashes with housepaint. Hilarious and tragic, George Singleton’s unforgettable characters try to overcome their limitations as best they can. 目录 Runt Migration over Gruel Christmas in Gruel Soldiers in Gruel Assurance The Novels of Raymond Carver Bluffs The Opposite of Zero Polish Snipers Lickers Scotch and Dr Pepper Shirts Against Skins Soles in Gruel Recovery Slow Drink What Attracts Us to Gruel What If We Leave?
