Book covers for:
Purgatoire by Liz Prato (Forest Avenue Press): In 1910 Sabé Parella makes the journey from northern Italy to southern Colorado to join her husband who had gone ahead to work in the coal mines. But when Sabé arrives along the banks of the Purgatoire River, he is nowhere to be found. https://www.forestavenuepress.com/bookshop/p/purgatoire
& Patchwork: a novella by Tom Comitta (Coffee House Press): To whom does a story belong? Who is its author? What is an author? Does it matter? These questions and more populate the subversive and audacious Patchwork, a comical tragedy that highlights the connective tissue that joins stories to themselves as well as to the grand history of storytelling itself. Celebrating the tropes and clichés of classical novels while simultaneously forging them into an original narrative, Patchwork ultimately shows us that the stories produced by hundreds of writers past—celebrated or obscure, reverent or hilarious, factual or fantastical—may, in the hands of a master, become a single, seamless whole. https://coffeehousepress.org/products/patchwork
