Goodnight, Nobody

Bag om Goodnight, Nobody

This luminous new collection of stories from the author of Dogfight and Divining Rod astutely explores rediscovered love, reconciliation, and peace amid the trials of everyday life. In each story in Goodnight, Nobody, characters are surprised by their mettle even as they recognize their fallibility; they are convinced of the power of love, family, and trust even as they experience the danger of obsession, anger, and simple accident. In the subtle romance "Birdland," a beautiful ornithologist from up north does her best to deny the lure of a parrot-populated Alabama village and its resident driftwood carver. In the stylistically daring masterpiece "Killing Stonewall Jackson," a rough band of Confederate soldiers contemplate the distant, fabled Stonewall Jackson, the man who has sent them to a hellish battlefield. Stirring tenderness in equal parts with violence, Goodnight, Nobody will amaze with Michael Knight's graceful sense of humor and empathy with the human spirit.
