Readers can now rediscover one of William Goyen's most important
works in this restoration of the original text. The House of Breath
eschews traditional conventions of plot and character presentation.
The book is written as an ethereal address to the people and places
the narrator remembers from his childhood in a small Texas town.
More than a story, it is a meditation on the nature of identity,
origins, and memory.
