Set in the American southwest, this collection of stories feature characters transitioning from adolescence, to young adulthood, to middle age. Their personal conflicts parallel those of contemporary Americans, post-911, as these artfully rendered characters try to keep themselves intact individually-- and as part of a family-- in the new millennium. Moving and evocative, Nothing Right explores the tenuous relationship between the individual self and the communal self.
