Johnny Shaw Libri
Johnny Shaw crea narrazioni profondamente radicate nell'atmosfera vibrante e spesso grintosa del confine di Calexico/Mexicali, un'ambientazione che plasma profondamente la sua narrazione. La sua scrittura approfondisce le complessità della vita su questa frontiera, esplorando temi di identità, sopravvivenza e le linee sfumate tra il giusto e lo sbagliato con una voce distintiva e senza compromessi. La finzione di Shaw è caratterizzata dalla sua energia cruda e da una potente miscela di profondità letteraria ed eccitazione pulp. Il suo background nella sceneggiatura influenza ulteriormente la sua capacità di costruire trame tese e avvincenti e personaggi memorabili che risuonano con i lettori.

Jack Veeder is dying. Soon. And that impending event brings his son Jimmy back to the Imperial Valley of southern California just north of the Calexico/Mexicali border. Jimmy hopes he can spend what time his father has left laughing and reminiscing. But Jack's got one dying request. He needs Jimmy to find a Mexican prostitute named Yolanda. Enlisting the help of his boyhood friend Bobby Maves, the pair stumbles through the violent, the exploited, and the corrupted of Mexicali. It doesn't take long before they're in over their heads. And as Jimmy tries to survive the dangers of the Mexicali underworld, he unwittingly uncovers truths about his father he never imagined, forcing Jimmy to come to terms with the man he thought he knew, and to decide just what sort of man he wants to become. " Johnny Shaw] is excellent at creating a sense of place with a few deft strokes... he moves effortlessly between dark comedy and moments that pack a real emotional punch, and he's got a knack for off-kilter characters who are completely at home in their own personal corners of oddballdom." - Tana French, author of In the Woods, Faithful Place
