In this short collection of fiction, a lonely man plainchants for the waitress he once stalked, a sonless father serenades a fatherless son, and a bereft family gathers to bury a parent, providing an aching chorus of what is left. Carmody uses Biblical language to pierce the callous and bruised souls of these lost, and sometimes found, small-town Michiganders. In her raw spare stories, novelist, essayist, and poet Carol Muske-Dukes writes that Carmody creates in her raw, spare stories, "a voice out of the backyard burning bush, a Midwest scriptural mist: frank, fierce and fidgety, and most emphatically her own." 606 $aRequiems$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRequiems 615 0$aRequiems$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aRequiems. 676 $a782.3232 700 $aCarmody$b Teresa$01830750 701 $aUlin$b David L$01651110 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910946921503321 996 $aRequiem$94401257 997 $aUNINA
