Tiny Review: An Arsonist's Guide to Writers' Homes in New England, by Brock Clarke

Novel. Algonquin Books, 2008.

Guy who accidentally burned down the Emily Dickinson house hides his past from his wife and children. Someone arrives out of the past to break everything open. Disturbing (especially the ending), but darkly funny. Beautifully made, and sometimes profound, sentences.

Tiny review. Because who has time to read (or write) a long review when there are so many books to be read!
