Muscle Cars de Stephen G Eoannou

Muscle Cars: SFWP Literary Awards

Autor Stephen G Eoannou
en Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2015
The stories in Muscle Cars explore the unique and sometimes flawed relationships between men, their families, and their friends. Featuring a diverse cast of inarticulate misfits—including a compulsive body builder obsessed by the death of his brother, a former boxer forced to sell his prized 1946 New York Yankees--autographed baseball, and two boyhood friends who plan to steal Ted Williams' scientifically frozen head—this stand-out debut from Pushcart-nominated Eoannou is a powerful journey through the humor, darkness, and neuroses of the modern American everyman.

Recenzii

"The stories in Stephen G. Eoannou's collection are, as the title suggests, very much like muscle carslean, powerful, fast, and gorgeous. Eoannou evokes, in 17 richly textured and often hilarious visions of Buffalo life, what it means to be maleson, brother, father, spouse, lover, half-baked friend, sports fanatic, neighborin the 21st century. These stories will transport you. Enjoy the ride." K. L. Cook, author, Love Songs for the Quarantined and Last Call
"Part Richard Russo, part Bruce Springsteen, part OTB parlors and Cutlass Supremes, Steve Eoannou's debut collection, Muscle Cars , is allallheart. These are tough, ruminative, cunning and toughdid I say tough?stories of people trying to make it, one way and another, for better and worse. A fine first collection, and I look forward to the next." Brett Lott, author, Jewel
"In his collection, Stephen G. Eoannou proves masterful at revealing that razor's edge inside everyday American man, where the power of role and the power of raw emotion almost balance out. He throws light on the mysterious interiors of husbands, fathers, sons, brothers, soldiers, compatriots, these streets of Buffalo past and present--all the while keeping track of the darker currents that run beneath the surface. And no matter how sympathetic, how human his storytellers are, there always seems to come a moment when you have to decide if this guy--the one with the plot to steal a frozen head or auction a baseball or shave his weightlifter legs--is brilliant or insane. Muscle Cars is a magnificent debut." Ashley Warlick, author, Seek the Living and The Summer After June
