His latest highly acclaimed volume of novellas, \u003ci\u003eThe Summer He Didn't Die, \u003c\/i\u003e is a sparkling and exuberant collection about love, the senses, and family, no matter how untraditional. In the title novella, The Summer He Didn't Die, Brown Dog, a hapless Michigan Indian, is trying to parent his two stepchildren and take care of his family's health on meager resources -- it helps a bit that his charms are irresistible to the new dentist in town. Republican Wives is a wicked satire on the sexual neuroses of the right, the emptiness of a life lived for the status quo, and the irrational power of love that, when thwarted, can turn so easily into an urge to murder. And Tracking is a meditation on Harrison's fascination with place, telling his own familiar mythology through the places his life has seen and the intellectual loves he has known. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith wit as sharp and prose as lush as any Harrison has yet written, \u003ci\u003eThe Summer He Didn't Die\u003c\/i\u003e is a resonant, warm, and joyful ode to our journey on this earth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 8.28 x 7.26 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 20, 2006\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAward:\u003c\/strong\u003e Story Prize (2005)\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51757484278048,"sku":"9780802142559","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/110aa337b50c54372d2d0cde46dfad1b.webp?v=1780104214","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-summer-he-didnt-die-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
