Bücher von Susan Tepper

In her debut story collection DEER, Susan Tepper takes us into the forest of her imagination, shining a light on a pack of off-kilter characters caught in unusual and compelling circumstances. Tepper is one of the most original voices in fiction I've heard in quite a while. While reading her loopy-beautiful dark narratives, I was reminded of the first time I read Denis Johnson. Yes, she 's that good. This is a writer to watch! - Jamie Cat Callan, The Writer's Toolbox & French Women Don't Sleep Alone

A Gulf War vet battling PTSD is tricked into chauffeuring millionaire country music legend Billy Bud Wilcox from Newark to Colorado. Everything goes wrong. Tepper expertly skewers a vast collection of characters on a wildly entertaining road trip from hell.Kafka meets Lost in America in Susan Tepper's quirky, irreverent, and incisive novel What Drives Men. Part nightmare, part slapstick comedy, with a generous dose of social critique, here everything slithers out of the flummoxed protagonist's control. ??Beate Sigriddaughter, author of Xanthippe and Her FriendsSusan Tepper?s What Drives Men is a picaresque masterpiece. Tepper?s cast of characters: a Gulf War vet, an octogenarian C&W singer, and three twenty-three-year-olds, are as diverse a group of nutcases you?ll come across this side of The Master and Margarita. Tepper spins a marvelous tale, sure to tickle the funny bone. ? James Claffey, author of Blood A Cold Blue
