This is Klosterman's first fiction. I was curious, because his nonfiction has been a little hit-or-miss. "Fargo Rock City" is genius; "Sex, Drugs & Cocoa Puffs" - not so much.
Have you ever lived in a really small town, where everybody knows everybody, and your history is a living, breathing part of your everyday modern life? Welcome to Owl ND.
The story alternates between points of view: a high school football player, an Owl old-timer, a new teacher in town. Their stories don't really converge, but they can't really stay separate in a town this small.
I was shocked by the end. I can't say I saw it coming. Which is always a good thing - but unsettling, none the less, during this cold, blowing, snowy January in WI.
