Blues and Trouble

In this extraordinary first book of stories, Tom Piazza delivers a tough and haunting vision of an America where the social, emotional, and spiritual ground shifts constantly underfoot. Set in Memphis, Florida, New York, New Orleans, and elsewhere, Blues And Trouble offers a series of startling portraits - the troubled family of a Gulf Coast fisherman awaits a hurricane, a Jewish couple visiting the South encounter a dealer in Nazi memorabilia, an aging rock and roll piano player confronts an adoring specter from his past - alternating with a series of "blueses," shorter, voice-driven pieces that evoke a unique and uncanny mood of longing.
