Two siblings survey the damage to their family's orchard after the storm while their rich nephew circles in the hopes of buying up the property. A slacker divorcee drives his ex-father-in-law to his lung transplant surgery. A cop tries to piece his broken family back together in the wake of the loss of his son. In 1816, a farmer's wife plots with an enslaved woman to stop her husband from committing a terrible act. And in a town that is not quite Bodock, a population of ghosts reckon with their unsettled pasts.In the spirit of Brad Watson's Last Days of the Dog-Men, Bodock traverses time and dimensions to surface the struggles of the everyday.
Bodock: Stories is the winner of the 2024 C. Michael Curtis Short Story Book Prize.
