About the Book
An unhittable baseball pitcher, a young woman who wants to keep her amputated leg, a couple dealing with an Alzheimer's afflicted father, and the rocks speaking with one another when everything comes to an end. Michael Hopkins' dazzling mix of stories helps us see the world as if through a beginner's eyes, a prism where the refractions usher in light and life.
