In
The Lone Surfer of Montana, Kansas, Davy Rothbart''s
stories grow out of road trips and small towns and are populated by
questionable heroes and gold-hearted thugs. Full of loneliness and
hope, heartbreak and humor, Rothbart''s tales blaze their way from
midwestern farm fields to state prisons and border-town brothels.
Much like the lost, tossed, and forgotten items Rothbart
collected in his acclaimed book, Found, the stories in
The Lone Surfer of Montana, Kansas capture the oddity,
poetry, and dignity of everyday life.
