LeGuin\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Eddie Chuculate's prize-winning collection of linked short stories follows Jordan Coolwater from bored young boy, to thoughtful teenager, struggling artist, escaped convict, and finally, father. Readers will find an unsentimental portrait of America, of its dispossessed, its outlaws, and its visionaries. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe first story in this debut collection, \"Galveston Bay, 1826,\" won an O. Henry Prize, and the second, \"Yo Yo,\" received a Pushcart Prize Special Mention. Admirers of the short stories of Jim Harrison and Annie Proulx will appreciate Chuculate's steady, confident prose rooted in American realism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"Eddie Chuculate emerges as an important new talent in his generation of storytellers.\u003c\/b\u003e He's a kind of journalist of the soul as he investigates the broken-hearted nation of Indian men. The epicenter of action is the tenuous meeting place between boyhood and manhood, between fierce need and desire. Chuculate relates a world that is exactly what it is, with no romantic savage junk, and no temporary spiritual life preservers. In the midst of despair there's a shrine of meaning that surfaces, like the miracle of sunrise after an all-night party.\"--\u003cb\u003eJoy Harjo, United States Poet Laureate\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-1130067\"\u003eEddie Chuculate\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Sparrow Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/16\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781574232165\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1574232169\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC029000\"\u003eShort Stories (single author)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Black Sparrow Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42673920278765,"sku":"9781574232165","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_cbf21256-baae-4259-ac93-9cf70b2e9faa.jpg?v=1649560788","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/cheyenne-madonna-9781574232165","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
