Barrow
The faded bookstore receipt used as a bookmark tells me I bought this back in May 1993.Has been read many times since then, and is always a good read.
The book is a collection of joined short stories, told by someone only known as The Old Man, about characters in the town of Barrow and surrounding slums and swamps.
They segue into one another well. All are good stories on their own, but as a whole they really shine.
It's good to see how one characters actions inadvertently start the ball rolling in someone else's life.
