Beschreibung

The Akashic Noir Series’ exploration of California continues with this spellbinding collection of stories curated by Sacramento native John Freeman.

Featuring brand-new stories by: Naomi J. Williams, William T. Vollmann, Maureen O’Leary, Reyna Grande, Jamil Jan Kochai, Maceo Montoya, Nora Rodriguez Camagna, Shelley Blanton-Stroud, Luis Avalos, José Vadi, Janet Rodriguez, Jen Soong, and John Freeman.

In his introduction, John Freeman writes:“This book is an attempt to . . . invite you into a variety of houses and apartments and spaces all over Sacramento, to imagine lives, not yours, or perhaps like yours, as told by some of the city’s most talented living writers. What freedom is here in words: to travel, to visit, to linger, to hear stories from all across the city, and to some degree across time . . . 

“Here is Sacramento in all of its splendor and deep, not-at-all-buried contradictions. A frontier city that quickly used its wealth to gather power. A locale that is somehow not quite sure it is still urban. Darkly compelling, canopied, gusted by river smells, Sacramento emerges from these thirteen stories like a character itself. It’s the kind of place that has sprawled widely enough, and covered enough different landscapes, that it is now many cities, some of which do not interact with each other. Some of which are only remembered in names of neighborhoods which people who once lived there still use with each other: Sakura City. The West End. Broderick. What a joy and vivid dream it is to see these stories here together, between these covers—for all to visit.”
