Winner of the2013 CNY Book Award for Fiction.
When you step inside Patrick Lawler s Rescuers of Skydivers Search Among the Clouds, you will find yourself hovering in the clouds, among a family and a town, and in the world of one of fiction s most inventive writers. Patrick Lawler s novel is about resonance, echoes, and naming; about hiding inside of names; about standing completely still; and about the fractalization of family. Connect the dots. Connect the secrets. Mother. Father. Sisters. Brother. Every character wears a variety of masks, and every place is also someplace else. Rescuers of Skydivers Search Among the Clouds is a reconfiguring of narrativehow stories exist inside stories, how place exists inside self, how self exists inside others, and how parachutists exist inside clouds."
