Hunts in Dreams

Grouse County, somewhere in the Midwest. Over the course of a long, autumnal weekend, each member of the Darling family is in search of something elusive. For Charles it's an heirloom shotgun; for his wife, Joan, the imaginative life she once knew; for their young son, Micah, who prowls the empty streets at night, it's a sense of the limits of his world; and for Joan's daughter, Lyris, a stable base from which to begin to grow up.

The follow-up to the cult-classic The End of Vandalism, Hunts in Dreams is a remarkable novel from a modern master.
