Juliet in August (2012)
“His cowboy hat is beside him on the seat, his take-out coffee spilled on the floor at his feet where he’d accidentally kicked it over. The day before, he’d traveled to a town just west of Winnipeg to pick up a used stock trailer he’d found on the Internet, but then he hadn’t bought the trailer after all because it was covered in rust that suspiciously had not been evident in the pictures the owner had sent. Then Hank’s truck had broken down and he’d waited several hours for a mechanic to get hi...m on the road again, and he’d tried to make it home by driving all night, but caught himself nodding off and ended up grabbing a few hours’ sleep in the campground just east of Juliet. Hank knows from past experience that when he starts to fall asleep at the wheel, he’d better pull over, pronto. He rolled his truck once while trying to drive through a sleepy spell with the window down, gulping air to keep himself awake. It hadn’t worked. He’d totaled the truck, but somehow emerged with only a few bruises.MoreLess
