About This Item
Minneapolis, Minnesota: Coffee House Press, 2012. CD5 - A first edition (stated with complete numberline) paperback book SIGNED and inscribed by author to previous owner on the title page in very good condition that has some bumped corners, lightly curled, some wrinkling and chipping on the cover edges and sides, some scattered scratches and rubbing, light discoloration and shelf wear. 8.25"x5.5", 252 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Wade Salem is a charismatic aesthete, drug dealer, and journeyman country musician. He's also a complicated father figure to this novel's narrator, whose cloudy childhood becomes both clearer and more confusing through Wade's stories, jokes, and lectures. Through the eyes of a keenly observant, underemployed record collector, Wade emerges as a sly, disruptive force, at once seductive and maddening. Shifting between flashbacks from the seventies and nineties, Boarded Windows is a postmodern orphan story that explores the fallibility of memory and the weight of our social and cultural inheritance. Stylistically layered and searchingly lonesome, Dylan Hicks' debut novel captures the music and mood of the fading embers of America's boomer counterculture.. Signed by Author. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket as Issued. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
