In these pages you will find the extraordinary lives of ordinary people. There are moments of grace descending, moments terrifying, moments so revelatory they'll take your breath away. No matter how transgressive, they are artfully told with kindness, insight and patience. This writer cares about her people. -Robert Olmstead, author of the best-selling Coal Black Horse The stories in Crossing Over, Kim Shegog's debut collection, are written in a direct, hard-edge prose that underscores her absolutely unflinching look at the lives of her characters who attempt to navigate moments in their lives where they gain knowledge of themselves and others that they would rather not know. The anchoring novella, "Breath to Bones," is Shegog at her finest. A woman who has struggled with mental illness loses a child in birth, and through this tragedy, Shegog explores the troubled dynamics of an entire extended family that in some ways includes us all. -Marlin Barton, author of Children of Dust and Pasture Art I salute this richly entertaining new writer. Kim Shegog's debut collection is a showcase of Southern realism at its finest. Shocking, fresh, and often funny, these stories probe the kinds of secrets and betrayals that cause families and communities to fly to pieces. This is what Stephen Vincent Benet meant when he said a short story is "Something that can be read in an hour and remembered for a lifetime." -Cary Holladay, author of Horse People: Stories Anyone who played "Red Rover" or attended a funeral or stood on a bridge, calculating, knows there will be loss and gain in the passage suggested by the richly layered title. In stories strikingly varied, relationships shift, mores and morals hold up to scrutiny or resistance. Each presents us with characters on edge. Snake handlers, sibling and spousal rivals, suicide, stillbirth-these provide dramatic moments for characters to obey or resist the rules of civility and responsibility. The title implies choice. Call them acts of stasis or maturity, deeper entrenchment or overcoming habits, the choices position characters for change. The novella begins with a death and through complications of familial love closes on the possibility of a rebirth. -Jeanine Hathaway, author of The Self as Constellation
Synopsis
The stories in this collection give voice to the history and soul of a rural collective. These people want to belong-to themselves, their families, their communities, and their God. Their motivations, disturbing at times, expose their love, loneliness, and their limits. As one character reminds readers, "We move beside and around and in between each other until something-sometimes good, mostly bad-pushes us together. Then we have to get close, real close, and it's no easy job for any of us." From the dizzying Thanksgiving table to the sobering graveside service, these stories exist in their acts of agency and grace.
