High Water (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798249062774)

The car radio is blasting 2010s pop; the world is dim through your sunglasses.

Sunlight filters through the hanging branches and winks on the cresting water.

In High Water and Jim's Aqualand, a noon sun shines down on a perfect summer day-

but if a drunken, sun-soaked adolescence is central to the American experience, then elemental violence is even more so;

and as the sun lowers in the west, painting the world in shades of red-

the river begins to look like blood.
