Tom Lowe's fall was catastrophic-a moment of fatigued inattention
while shingling a roof leading to excruciating pain, opioid
addiction, divorce, and estrangement from his son. Yet Tom still
considers himself a worker, unlike his shiftless neighbors in
subsidized housing. And he resents the hell out of the banker and
adjustable-rate mortgage responsible for foreclosure on the home he
built himself. After his car is impounded, Tom stoops lower than he
ever thought possible, with a scheme to commit convenience-check
fraud. But in digging through literal trash, Tom finds that
something new begins to grow: a recognition of common humanity, a
self-acceptance deeper than pride, a determination to give what he
can. Still, he'll need to fall even farther before he finds a new
place to rest. To one man's painful moral journey, Andre Dubus III
brings compassion with an edge of dark absurdity, forging a novel
as absorbing as it is profound.
