Dad makes the UT's Summer Reading List
Dad got reviewed in the San Diego Union Tribune last week. Here's what the reviewer had to say:
I gave Lee K. Abbott's “All Things at Once” (Norton, $26.95) the open-to-a-story-at-random test. The first line in “Gravity”: “They grab her – Tanya, my fourteen year-old daughter – early in the afternoon from the sidewalk outside the north entrance to J.C. Penney's at the Mimbres Valley Mall.” What follows is a full-throttle, foreshortened, sandblasted tale of disassociation and heartbreak set in a sere and superficially serene New Mexico town. A lesser writer would've made it a novel.
