DESCRIPTION
The Lonesome Go by Tim Lane 296-page black & white/color 8" x 10.75" softcover • $39.99 ISBN: 978-1-60699-754-3 Tim Lane continues his exploration of the Great American Mythological Drama that began with his first book, the critically acclaimed Abandoned Cars. This collection of stories is broadly linked together by the experience of wandering — both literally and figuratively. With compelling verisimilitude, the lives of his characters are depicted by way of rich mixtures of obscure myths and documented facts, dreams and reality, belief and disbelief, throughout a haunted landscape populated by the ghosts of a complex and rich fictional tapestry.TRANSCRIPT
