Acerca de esta escucha
This collection of stories brings together a wide cast of characters, all connected to the Ozarks - natives and transplants, young and old, wicked and innocent, troubled and happy, God-haunted and just plain haunted. These stories range over human experience from madness to reconciliation and everything in between, told in precise, poetic language that leaves a permanent impression. Finalist for the 2021 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction.
"[Wiegenstein] presents us with dozens of distinctive and real people doing their best, or not so best, but intermittently asking the same questions all of us do - why are we here, who loves us, what do we owe each other, what does it mean to be good?... The pared, beautiful prose of Scattered Lights comes to seem less a style than an ethic - not to intrude, but to observe; not to judge, but to comprehend. The project founded on a final faith, present in great writers of short fiction, from Chekov to Grace Paley, to another of this year’s finalists Deesha Philyaw, that art is where our higher selves can meet, free from the transient furies of the news. The sooner we begin paying attention to each other as people, Wiegenstein argues, the more people we suddenly begin to see, no matter where we're from." (From the PEN/Faulkner Award commendation)
