Publisher Description: A New York Times Editors' Choice "The spirit of Eudora Welty broods over these adroitly crafted stories set in and around coastal Alabama, evoking a world coiled tight as a conch shell." --O Magazine "Impressive...Knight pays careful, writerly attention to the details of desperation."--New York Times Book Review An instant regional bestseller, Eveningland is Alabama-born Michael Knight's powerful short story cycle whose seven stellar tales illuminate the everyday beauty and heartache of life along the shores of serene, history-haunted Mobile Bay, in the years preceding a devastating hurricane. A thought-provoking and deeply satisfying reading experience, Eveningland evokes the Old South without sentimentalizing its loss. --Washington Independent Review of Books
