Whistler's House is the place where chance and quiet, desperate passions, sometimes hidden by the character's dearest illusions, meet in the world of cold-wind Minnesota. The at first unknown narrator, working as a freelance writer, tells the stories of the tender, the struggling and the other seekers he encounters.
"In the tradition of Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg, Ohio and Denis Johnson's Jesus' Son, Whistler's House weaves together short stories to create a compelling novel. Firmly rooted in time and place (the Twin Cities in the 1980's) and character driven, this novel brings readers, often through sly humor, what we most need--truths about what it means to be human."
--John Bradley, author of Trancelumination
