This book features rural characters who love and hate extravagantly. They know how to fix cars and washing machines, shoot and clean game, and cook methamphetamine, but struggle to prosper in the twenty-first century. Through the complex inner lives of working-class characters, it illustrates the desperation of post-industrial America, where wildlife, jobs, and whole ways of life go extinct and people must live off what is left behind.
