Description
William T. Goodman's debut novel takes us on a mesmerizing journey of linked narratives that speak to the richness and rawness of the human experience. Through unusual circumstances, three unlikely and uniquely different people come together in the small desert community of Lunden, Arizona. All three are products of their turbulent pasts, possessing deep flaws as well as remarkable qualities. The bond they form is of the intensity most people are lucky to experience once in a lifetime, if ever. But as the small desert town of Lunden gradually reveals its darker underbelly of sex, violence and racism, the novel's realism intimately captivates us. With diverse characters brought to life through a mixture of sometimes emotional, humorous, moving, shocking and heartbreakingly tragic developments as well as flashback revelations, Desert Sundays unfolds like an ingenious jigsaw puzzle.Propelled toward an explosive finale, the novel compels us to reexamine concepts of legal versus moral justice, loyalty, degrees of personal loss, prejudice and even the possibility of metaphysical predetermination. Desert Sundays strikingly showcases the complexities of contemporary America, and with masterful insight, the novel vividly captures life's intensity, touching our hearts, our hopes and our fears.
