Summary
An extraordinary and unforgettable short story collection about community, home, betrayal, and forgiveness-from a writer whose "spellbinding, buoyant"* storytelling will break your heart as it tends to the wounds. * Texas Monthly In Holler, Child 's eleven brilliant stories, LaToya Watkins presses at the bruises of guilt, love, and circumstance. Each story introduces us to a character irrevocably shaped by place and reaching toward something-hope, reconciliation, freedom.    In "Cutting Horse," the appearance of a horse in a man's suburban backyard places a former horse breeder in trouble with the police. In "Holler, Child," a mother is forced into an impossible position when her son gets in a kind of trouble she knows too well from the other side. And "Time After" shows us the unshakable bonds of family as a sister journeys to find her estranged brother-the one who saved her many times over.     Throughout Holler, Child , we see love lost and gained, and grief turned to hope. Much like LaToya Watkins's acclaimed debut novel, Perish , this collection peers deeply into lives of women and men experiencing intimate and magnificent reckonings-exploring how race, power, and inequality map on the individual, and demonstrating the mythic proportions of everyday life.
