Habash has a canny sense of how young men speak and behave, and in Stephen, he's created a singular character: funny, ambitious, affecting, but also deeply troubled, vulnerable, and compellingly strange. This is a shape-shifter of a book, both a dark ode to the mysteries and landscapes of the American West and a complex and convincing character study.\"\u003cbr\u003e--Hanya Yanagihara, author of \u003ci\u003eA Little Life\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFoxcatcher\u003c\/i\u003e meets \u003ci\u003eThe Art of Fielding\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eStephen Florida\u003c\/i\u003e follows a college wrestler in his senior season, when every practice, every match, is a step closer to greatness and a step further from sanity.
