Owen Thomas Bücher
Owen Thomas, ein lebenslanger Alaskabewohner und begeisterter Leser, beschäftigt sich in seinen Werken mit den verwirrenden Grenzbereichen zwischen dem, wer wir sind, und dem, was wir uns wünschen. Seine Kurzgeschichten und Novellen erforschen Themen, die seine Überzeugung verdeutlichen, dass das Leben eher zu eng als zu kurz ist. Thomas' unverwechselbarer Erzählstil lädt die Leser zu einer tiefgründigen Auseinandersetzung mit der menschlichen Psyche und gesellschaftlichen Gegebenheiten ein.

What if your childhood harbored a dire warning about your future? What if your life and the lives of dozens of others, including your future child, depended on you deciphering that warning before it is too late?Mother Blues is about the maternal relationships we never knew existed, the evil we never expect, and the redemption we never think possible. Subversively feminist and environmental, this is a novel about mothers: those we have loved and lost, those we have never known, and those who have always been there for us whether we have realized it or not. And while this is not a novel about blues music, the blues is everywhere in this story, both grounding it in history and pushing it forward in a slow, rhythmic ache.
