It started as a short story a few yeas ago and slowly expanded. Now it's 95K words and tickles my ear at night when I try to sleep. (less)

The best opening page of a book I've read in FOREVER. SO good. Some fantastic lines throughout, but the dream/vision part in the last third kind of derailed a lot of the momentum for me. Super great premise and again, some wonderful single lines here ...more

Quotes by Keith Rosson  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“She becomes accustomed to the notion of home being a small thing. Attainable and compact. In this manner, Weils's home becomes an inch wide, becomes whatever she imagines it might be, whatever she might bring with her. A pillow is home, a book, the sound a car's wheels make when moving through rainwater. Small, intangible moments you might bring to yourself, might claim ownership over.”
Keith Rosson, Fever House

“Marvin, you're here now," Vale said. He stood up, his knees popping. "The food sucks. They have severed animal heads in the bar. I don't know if you know that." His cigarette sparked against the gravel and he ratcheted open my walker in front of me. "But you're among friends, okay, and you're still walking upright and taking solids. You're winning. Anything beyond that is thinking too far ahead”
Keith Rosson, Smoke City

“The very night that the trajectory of my life had been set — I was an executioner's son, and so would be an executioner — was also the night my world became unmoored.”
Keith Rosson, Smoke City
