July 1, 2022

(Tubac, Ariz.: Full Court Press, 2020)
This collection of short stories is inspired by the author’s long residence in the West. “Fearnow‘s fictional world springs to life with plain, blunt prose that mirrors the hard truths his young, vulnerable characters are made to face. As a sympathetic but unsentimental chronicler of their lives, he shows a mastery of detail and a Faulknerian ability to expose the ways in which the present is haunted by the past,” notes Roy Schecter ’73 on the book jacket. Fearnow is a retired lawyer.
