From the critically acclaimed author of the novel and memoir is Chris Offutt’s fiercely original short story collection calls “a magical book”.

Arriving seven years after Offutt’s debut collection , Out of the Woods returns a masterly writer to the form which garnered him not only critical praise but many prestigious awards. Offutt, who “draws landscape and constructs dialogue with the eyes and ears of a native son” is on strong home turf here, capturing those who have left the Kentucky hills and long to return. These nine stories of gravediggers and drifters, gamblers and truck drivers a long way from home, are tales so full of hard edges they can't help but tell some hard truths.
