Colors of Dust

I am not now, nor have I ever been...... Michael Anania evokes the fifties with the explosive shock waves of the A-bomb. Growing up in an Omaha housing project, his teenage narrator is smack in the middle of Middle America, surrounded by McCarthysim, the Russian threat, the American dream of fast car with V-8 engines....and the reality of poverty, violence, and broken lives. From youthful sexual fantasies to the hilarious monologues of Louie, the hard-drinking dishwasher who spews wisdom about women, religion, and politics, Michael Anania stunningly recreates an era and its values. Outrageously freak, funny, and erotic, this fiction filled with truth.... a stark burned into our consciousness with ground-zero accuracy.
