45:11Now PlayingLish’s first novel, sharing the frenetic pace and cultural richness of its New York City setting, is a sharp social commentary and a poignant love story. His Romeo and Juliet, an American Iraq-war vet and a recently arrived Chinese-Uighur woman, are torn apart by economics, PTSD, and the Patriot Act. McLeod, a Pushcart winner, former Steinbeck fellow, and author of American Weather and National Treasures, chronicles—and critiques—a wide swath of American life in the seven short stories of his second collection.
