Description
A Prize for Every Player, Hello Everybody, and She Got Away are three stories that explore the complexities of human connection in America. A man is unexpectedly nominated to run for president by the customers of a big box store, while his family shops as usual. In another story, old friends reunite at a conference on genocide, rediscovering themselves and finding comfort in ancient traditions. A.M. Homes' latest collection, Days of Awe, offers a nuanced portrayal of American life, exposing the tensions between our attachments to each other and our own identities. With her characteristic humour and compassion, Homes delves into the lives of characters who are not what they seem, yet are all they can be in their own ways. This collection is a major new addition to A.M. Homes' body of work, showcasing her unique blend of psychological insight and satire that has earned her widespread critical acclaim.
