Opis

In this novel about family, community, and identity, writer Justin P. Kennon celebrates the ordinary people of an ordinary town. Characters like Jack the barber; his assistant, Oliver; and a customer, harried single mother Barbara, seem like nothing special to Wes, Kennon's first protagonist. Wes is desperate to get out of the little town and decides that a haircut can help him start anew. By chance, he picks Jack's barbershop for the final step in his escape. As he interacts with Jack, Oliver, Barbara, and her son, Wes realizes that they aren't so boring after all. Wes isn't the only character we follow throughout Small Town's interconnected chapters. Jack, Oliver, and Barbara also get their time in the sun, along with six other unforgettable individuals. Wes may have secret hopes, but he is not the only one. Kennon uses these ten distinct individuals to examine the joys and struggles of ordinary existence and extraordinary circumstances. Some townspeople's lives will be touched in amazing ways. Others will face decisions that will have consequences for their entire families. Each has a unique story to be told. Join this small town, and discover them all.
