Book Synopsis Callum and The Other by : Alan McClure
Download or read book Callum and The Other written by Alan McClure and published by Beaten Track Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-15 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Change has come to the village of Skerrils, and fourteen-year-old Callum is struggling to adjust. Important people have moved on; others have arrived. Even the Mountain, once the scene of an epic adventure for Callum and his friends, has vanished in the October mist. But its power cannot stay hidden for long, for in that mist lurks a terrifying new presence that wishes to destroy all that Callum has ever fought for. This presence is known only as ‘The Other’, and it will take alliances old and new to reconnect Callum with past magic if he is to stop it before everything is lost. *** “This has a wonderful, otherworldly atmosphere – like a fantastic film on a bank holiday afternoon. That’s how it feels to me. So much fantasy is nihilistic and dark, but this is delightful.” —Paul Magrs, author of Strange Boy, Lost on Mars and The Novel Inside You “McClure had me from the first four words! This is a story about change and loneliness and how we connect. What it is to be human. McClure has filled this sequel with the same vivid, vibrant, sometimes uncanny sense of place – a story for our strange and difficult times.” —Joan Lennon, most recently co-author with Joan Haig of Talking History: 150 years of world-changing speeches “Much anticipated, Callum and The Other doesn’t disappoint. Dare I say, this is the author’s best yet – it brims with the intrigue, lyricism and light humour now characteristic of Alan McClure’s novels. My kids and I want more!” —Joan Haig, author of Tiger Skin Rug

Jack’s Well is an original and beautifully written story of one boy’s search for clarity and kindness in a world—or worlds—beyond his control.” —Joan Haig, author of Tiger Skin Rug “I love books that twist my thoughts, distort my reality and leave me asking, ‘Whit?’ Jack’s Well is one of the weirdest, most original things I have ever read!” —Kirsty Crommie, Unicorns and Kelpies “Unique, original and deeply touching, Jack’s Well confirms McClure as one of the most exciting children’s writers working in Scotland today.” —Ross Sayers, author of Mary’s the Name, Sonny and Me and Daisy on the Outer Line

Book Synopsis A Natural History of Transition by : Callum Angus
Download or read book A Natural History of Transition written by Callum Angus and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Short Stories. LGBTQIA Studies. A NATURAL HISTORY OF TRANSITION is a collection of short stories that disrupts the notion that trans people can only have one transformation. Like the landscape studied over eons, change does not have an expiration date for these trans characters, who grow as tall as buildings, turn into mountains, unravel hometown mysteries, and give birth to cocoons. Portland-based author Callum Angus infuses his work with a mix of alternative history, horror, and a reality heavily dosed with magic. Callum Angus is one of the younger writers I'm most excited by, with a mind full of marvels and an ear to match. Every story surprises; every sentence strives gorgeously toward music. This is writing as transition, as entrancement, as transcendence.--Garth Greenwell
Download or read book Dog Run Moon written by Callan Wink and published by Dial Press. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Richard Ford, Annie Proulx, and Kent Haruf comes a dazzling debut story collection by a young writer from the American West who has been published in The New Yorker, Granta, and The Best American Short Stories. SHORTLISTED FOR THE DYLAN THOMAS PRIZE • 2017 PEN/HEMINGWAY AWARD HONORABLE MENTION A construction worker on the run from the shady local businessman whose dog he has stolen; a Custer’s Last Stand reenactor engaged in a long-running affair with the Native American woman who slays him on the battlefield every year; a middle-aged high school janitor caught in a scary dispute over land and cattle with her former stepson: Callan Wink’s characters are often confronted with predicaments few of us can imagine. But thanks to the humor and remarkable empathy of this supremely gifted writer, the nine stories gathered in Dog Run Moon are universally transporting and resonant. Set mostly in Montana and Wyoming, near the borders of Yellowstone National Park, this revelatory collection combines unforgettable insight into the fierce beauty of the West with a powerful understanding of human beings. Tender, frequently hilarious, and always electrifying, Dog Run Moon announces the arrival of a bold new talent writing deep in the American grain. Praise for Dog Run Moon “[An] excellent first book of stories . . . One of the great things about Dog Run Moon is how resilient and funny [the characters] are. They’re at the end of their ropes, but they can still howl about the joy and pain each day brings, as if the young Levon Helm were singing their stories. . . . This is Thomas McGuane territory, and also that of writers like Joy Williams and Jim Harrison.”—The New York Times “Wink is definitely not a writer of half measures; each of these stories demonstrates his ability to lay life bare. A significant collection highly deserving of the spotlight.”—Library Journal (starred review) “Myth and history color these highly satisfying fictions about the way men and women struggle to shape their lives.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “The perils of work and the weight of bequeathal fuel these stories, and each one holds a lasting, unshakable image. Sometimes grace is bestowed upon the characters in a sidewindering, not altogether fabulous fashion; sometimes it’s not bestowed at all. Callan Wink seems to know well the stratagems and delusions of men’s hearts. He also seems born and bred to short-story mastery.”—Joy Williams, author of The Visiting Privilege “Callan Wink’s debut is impressive indeed. Fine, old-fashioned, rich and juicy fiction. Weeks later I’m still living with the characters.”—Jim Harrison, author of Legends of the Fall “Callan Wink’s fresh, urgent stories have an energy and propulsion that set them well apart from the cerebral finger painting of so much literary fiction. Here is a writer with a great big horizon.”—Thomas McGuane, author of Crow Fair “Callan Wink’s stories remind me of expertly tied trout flies—beautifully crafted, true to reality, and barbed. What a fine young writer.”—Ron Rash, author of Above the Waterfall “As in all the best collections, each and every story in Dog Run Moon sings in the essential registers of love and death, work and nature. Callan Wink has the wisdom to write only of the things that matter, and the talent to make these stories as fresh as the literary headwaters from which they come.”—Smith Henderson, author of Fourth of July Creek

But when two teens from the town get lost on the mountain, Aarav and Connie must work together to find them before it’s too late. The trail leads them higher and higher. A fast-approaching blizzard brings the human search and rescue to a screeching halt. Now it will take a supernatural miracle to find them. Unwilling to let the children die from exposure, the Tribe will risk exposing their secret to save the missing teens. And that sacrifice may cost them their home and their freedom.
