 ABOUT MILES HARVEY

Miles Harvey won both the Society of Midland Authors fiction award and the Journal Non/Fiction Prize for The Registry of Forgotten Objects, a collection of short stories.  He is the author of three books of nonfiction, The King of Confidence, Painter in a Savage Land and The Island of Lost Maps, a national and international bestseller. He teaches creative writing at DePaul University in Chicago, where he chairs the Department of English and is a founding editor of Big Shoulders Books, a nonprofit, social-justice publisher.

“[A] powerful debut collection ... as imaginatively varied as one could wish, taking the reader from rural Indiana to contemporary New Orleans, from 'yesterday' to a dystopian future. The characters — a couple devastated by the death of their son, a small-town TV weatherman — are compelling and surprising.”
