Overview
Named a BEST BOOK OF 2022 by Oprah Daily, Vogue, Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal, and Electric Lit
From a prizewinning author comes an āelectric...stunningā (Publishers Weekly, starred review) debut story collection about women navigating the wilds of male-dominated Alaskan society.
Set in Newmanās home state of Alaska, Nobody Gets Out Alive is an exhilarating collection about women struggling to survive not just grizzly bears and charging moose, but the raw legacy of their marriages and families.
Alongside stories set in todayās Last Frontierārife with suburban sprawl, global warming, and opioid addictionāNewman delves into remote wilderness of the 1970s and 80s, bringing to life young girls and single moms in search of a wilder, freer, more adventurous America. The final story takes place in a railroad camp in 1915, where an outspoken heiress stages an elaborate theatrical production in order to seduce the wife of her husbandās employer.
āRich with wit and wisdom, showing us that love, marriage, and family are always a bigger and more perilous adventures than backcountry tripsā (Kirkus Reviews, starred review), these keenly observed stories prove there are some questionsāabout love, heartbreak, and the meaning of homeāthat canāt be outrun, no matter how hard we try. Nobody Gets Out Alive is a dazzling foil to the adventure narratives of old.
