Provinces of Night by William Gay
The Bloodworths come from Ackerman's Field, Tennessee. Theirs is a rough and violent past and Boyd Bloodworth - father of the hero, Fleming - is intent on continuing the tradition. The year is 1952 and E.F. Bloodworth, Boyd's father, has returned after 20 years of roaming.
William Gay lives in Hohenwald, Tennessee. His work has appeared in the Georgia Review, the Oxford Review, and The Best American Mystery Stories 2001. He is the author of the novels The Long Home and Provinces of Night. Reviewing Provinces of Night, the New York Times Book Review wrote that 'Gay writes with the wisdom and patience of a man who has witnessed hard times . . . he looks upon beauty and violence with equal measure and makes an accurate accounting of how much of each the human heart contains'.
