Witchita Stories by Troy James Weaver
Weaver’s viscerally-charged memoir hits like a 2x4 right in the kisser, raw and brutally honest almost to a fault. These depictions of small town malaise and coming-of-age atrocities are shocking, wickedly funny, and achingly sad, often all at once. This one has a lot of heart, and is easily one of my favorites from this year.” — Ryan
