Reviews
"The human desperation behind the violence is gripping. If anyone understands what motivates a man to keep shooting a corpse with a squirrel rifle, it's Woodrell."-- Melissa Maerz , Entertainment Weekly, The Outlaw Album is a collection of stories by one of the world's great novelists, Daniel Woodrell, and it's brilliant., "A stunner. Woodrell has the rare ability to tell compelling stories rooted in familiar soil that are simultaneously simple and complex, local and universal, funny and tragic."-- St. Louis Post-Dispatch, "Best Books of 2011", "Woodrell's Old Testament prose and blunt vision have a chilly timelessness that suggests this novel will speak to readers as long as there are readers."-- David Bowman , The New York Times Book Review, "A writer whose words flow with the elemental power of Cormac McCarthy, William Gay, and Chris Offutt, he's chipped an impression of the Ozarks and its people in stone that will endure time....Let these stories be your Bible."-- Chris Talbott , Associated Press, Despite the roughness of the content, Woodrell has a poet's sense of how to turn a phrase. . . . Seek him out now, throw down fifteen bucks, and bend your face to the page.

Amid the rage, despair, and hatred his characters live with, he teases out and displays their deep stores of love and loyalty, and a surprisingly bracing humor., The Outlaw Albumis a collection of stories by one of the world's great novelists, Daniel Woodrell, and it's brilliant., "The lineage from Faulkner to Woodrell runs as deep and true as an Ozark stream in this book...his most profound and haunting work yet."-- Denise Hamilton , Los Angeles Times Book Review, The human desperation behind the violence is gripping.

Synopsis
Twelve timeless Ozarkian tales of those on the fringes of society, by a "stunningly original" ( Associated Press ) American master. Daniel Woodrell is able to lend uncanny logic to harsh, even criminal behavior in this wrenching collection of stories. Desperation-both material and psychological--motivates his characters. A husband cruelly avenges the killing of his wife's pet; an injured rapist is cared for by a young girl, until she reaches her breaking point; a disturbed veteran of Iraq is murdered for his erratic behavior; an outsider's house is set on fire by an angry neighbor. There is also the tenderness and loyalty of the vulnerable in these stories--between spouses, parents and children, siblings, and comrades in arms-which brings the troubled, sorely tested cast of characters to vivid, relatable life. And, as ever, "the music coming from Woodrell's banjo cannot be confused with the sounds of any other writer" (Donald Harington, Atlanta Journal Constitution )., Twelve timeless Ozarkian tales of those on the fringes of society, by a "stunningly original" American master ( Associated Press ).

The seller also packed the box so that the item wouldn't be damaged in transit; it wasn't. The item also came with exactly when they said it would. There was also an extra item given in the package, the sequel book, that was thrown in (I don't remember it being in the listing description), for which I am incredibly grateful. The shipping was very high (around two-thirds the cost of the item), but, taking everything into account, I am very pleased and would de buy from this seller again.
