Reviews
"Feverish, psychotropic, bold, mesmerizing, painful, Fox Tooth Heart is full of stories about people living on the margins of society, characters born into dark circumstances, or . . . driven there by their own obsessions and addictions" (Huffington Post)—murderers, loners, addicts, neurotics and outcasts stumbling side-by-side with "the down-and-out heroes of George Saunders or John Updike, captured just before their fall" (Vice.com).
In this "achingly visceral . . . masterpiece" McManus ventures from trailers hidden in deep Southern woods to an Arkansas ranch converted into an elephant refuge to a Georgia tent community of sex offenders to a Kentucky band of teenage Satanists (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution). His lost-soul men, women, and children reel precariously between common anxiety and drug-enhanced paranoia, sober reality and fearsome hallucination.
"Powered by radiant prose" (Vanity Fair), these nine "eccentric . . . wildly inventive" (Publishers Weekly) stories of twisted humor and pathos re-establish McManus as one of the most bracing voices of our time.
