What Burns by Dale Peck

Written over the course of twenty-five years, the stories in What Burns examine the extremes of desire against a backdrop of family, class, and mortality. Walking the tightrope between tenderness and violence that has defined Peck's work, What Burns reveals Peck's mastery of the short form as well as the novel.

Dale Peck is the author of twelve books, including Martin and John, Hatchet Jobs, and Sprout, in a variety of genres. He has two Os for his fiction and critique. A Pushcart Prize, a Lambda Literary Award, and a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship have all been bestowed upon him. He teaches in the Graduate Writing Program at the New School in New York City.
