Life Cycle of a Bear

Pages : 76
Book Description
In Steven Kleinman's Life Cycle of a Bear, men are bears, wolves, starfish, and clowns, but they are also fathers, addicts, veterans, failures, and friends. This is not another book about how bad men have it. There are no heroes here. Instead, it is a book of vast imagination and steadfast intimacy, of compassion and clear-eyed dissent, about one locality and thus our world. Kleinman's reckoning with the mythologies and communities born of the violence of men is as tenderly wrought as it is tenacious and true. - Jennifer Chang
