A boy in an institution falls silently in love with a visitor. A soldier carries a dying child out of someone else's war. A new father, unslept, sits with an old woman who mistakes the hospital for an inn. A fifteen-year-old girl boards a freight train with a green suitcase, running from her mother's madness toward whatever comes next.
In Stories, Jeremy Mark Lane writes with spare, unsentimental prose about the fleeting moments with unexpected people, in unexpected places that shape a life. These are quiet, human stories about loss, love, faith, and the strange mercy of being seen.
Praise for Stories:Great writing knows the intimate language of the soul, occupies your thoughts, and draws you back to its words over and over again. Jeremy Lane's style has a Raymond Carver quality that impresses with every word.
- Jaime Guiney, author of the Pushcart Prize-nominated A Quarter Yellow Sun
Charming and rich with an emotion that makes one ponder on pieces of our existence that are often overlooked.
- Lacey Weatherford, author of The Trouble with Spells
Resignation and a sense of hope often go hand in hand in this powerful collection. Dealing with big themes, Jeremy's characters remain unfailingly warm and doggedly inspirational.
- Lynsey May, author of It Starts So Sweetly
For readers of Raymond Carver, Andre Dubus, Tobias Wolff, and Alice Munro.
