Descriere magazin:
Set against the stark but seductive landscape of the American Southwest, the stories in All My
Relations explore the inner landscape of mind and heart, where charting the simplest course is subject to a complex constellation of relationships. In the title story of the collection, a Pima Indian hires on with a rancher in an attempt to quit drinking and to win back the wife and son who have left him. His efforts to master land and horses and to bake the perfect cake mirror his efforts to subdue his own demons and to embrace a peaceful domesticity. In The Big Bang and the Good House, Tony, a former drug dealer, pits his urge toward chaos against the orderly pleasures of marriage, finally yielding to the solidity and spaciousness of domestic love: I feel myself gathering weight, density. Cautiously, I allow myself to inhabit this Good House, which surprisingly fits like my own body. Julia, the aging protagonist of Simplifying, risream house with their own hands, and eventually they are forced to leave behind the illusion of safety and permanence: Once the three had imagined themselves as a house on a hill, dug into stone with the tenacity of a lion. Now they sat tensely in canvas-backed chairs stretched like slingshots. They talked cautiously, with encouragement, hoping for the return of pleasure. Embodying the transience and openness of the New West, the characters in All My
Relations reinvent themselves, even as they struggle with the age-old, perilous necessity of loving.
