Publisher Description: Capp Road is a brutal, unflinching portrait of small town America. Here, Matt Borczon trains his laser-focus upon the claustrophobic, suffocating, sinking feeling of not being able to escape the nowhere fate that threatens, at every turn, to capture us like bugs under glass. What makes this book work, really work at a fundamental level, is Borczon's minimalistic storytelling approach. The broken characters that wander Capp Road are neither good nor bad - they simply are. They are doing the best they can with the fucked-up situation they were born into. Their hopes, dreams, fears, stories, and journeys through madness and redemption, through Borczon's trademark smashed-up sentence narrative, becomes ours. Capp Road is not a book to be read - it is meant to be ingested, injected, scraped from under our fingernails and shaken off like dust. This book is a triumph. -- Wolfgang Carstens, Epic Rites Press |
