Nobody Looks That Young Here

Nobody Looks That Young Here is about interconnected characters who struggle with whether to accept or reject their seemingly predetermined lives in Currie Township, Southwestern Ontario. The youth and adolescence of one character, Michael Carrion, makes up a large part of the narrative, but the narrators vary in age and gender and the story unfolds over a period of approximately 30 years. As ancestors, this book could count Lives of Girls and Women, Winesburg, Ohio, Sunshine Sketches of a Little Town and the novels of S.E. Hinton.
