02.08: Arthur Bradford

2015-01-16 00:05:23| Powells Books Events Calendar

Turtleface and Beyond (Farrar Straus Giroux) features darkly funny stories by Arthur Bradford, the man David Sedaris calls "the most outlandish and energetic writer I can think of." Paddling down a remote, meandering river, Georgie's friend Otto decides to do something both spectacular and stupid: he scales a sandy cliff that rises from the water and runs down its steep face, preparing for a triumphant running dive. As his friends look on, they watch something awful unfold: Otto lands with an odd smack and knocks himself unconscious, blood spilling from his nose and mouth. Georgie arrives on the scene first and sees a small turtle, its shell cracked, floating just below the water's surface. Otto and the turtle survive the collision, though both need help, and Georgie finds his compassions torn. Big-hearted and hilariously high-fueled, Bradford's strangely funny collection marks the return of a beloved and unforgettable voice in fiction.
