"Small World" by Jonathan Evison
from Read Beat (...and repeat) · host Steve
Evison's seventh novel chronicles 170 years of American history but it's not chronological. We skip back and forth between the California gold rush, the building of the transcontinental railroad and modern life. "Evison pulls off a wonderful high-wire act of storytelling that few would attempt," noted Jason Mott, author of "Hell of a Book."
