Title: The loneliest road in America
First published: 1997
Description: A thoroughly fresh voice and a rarely observed rural world come together in this extraordinary debut collection. The stories revolve around a small town in the mountains of Northern California and the people who live there - or flee.

The characters exist on the fringes of mainstream society: a solitary marijuana grower who must deal with an intruder in his garden, a mystical Native American whose camp is about to be destroyed by loggers, a wanderer who finds a mentor in the wilderness, and other beautiful and haunting men and women.
