New York: Scribner, (2015). First edition - The author's first novel, second book (her first book, a collection of short stories won the Flannery O'Connor award, the Edmund White award and many more honors.) Ostlund describes her writing style as "digressive" and this book definitely meanders down many side paths as it tells the story of a man who has left his long time partner in Santa Fe to start a new life in San Francisco - successive chapters go back and forth between his childhood in Minnesota and his current life in San Francisco. 337 pp.
