Reseña del editor:
Fiction. PULPWOOD, a collection of short stories by Scott Ely, is submersed in the aura of the South. "I've been a fan of Scott Ely's work since STARLIGHT. PULPWOOD, though, takes Mr. Ely to a whole new stratosphere. The stories are linked by calloused hands and puzzled hearts, a relentless South, the wondrous dichotomies that keep us all pushing forward. Scott Ely knows the landscapes, both visible and hidden. Pulpwood is a collection that makes me believe in the short story"--George Singleton. "Ely's tough, immaculate prose constructs, in vivid detail, backdrops for the play of human foibles. His takes continually astound. Just when we're convinced the storyline is safely accounted for, Ely knocks us to our knees with twists in the plot that reveal our all-too-human absurdities"--Julie Suk.
