'An overlooked giant of American comic fiction'
GUARDIAN

INDEPENDENT
'I envy the readers who will be reading Drury for the first time . . . a memorable novel that will make the world a less lonely and more mysterious place'
Yiyun Li, author of THINGS IN NATURE MERELY GROW
'I adore Tom Drury's work and West of Loveland is another triumph, another knockout . . . a great, great book'
John Patrick McHugh, author of FUN AND GAMES
Grouse County, somewhere in the Midwest. Returning home from a disappointing pheasant hunt, teenage Rocky and his aunt Helen discover a gun by the side of the road. Sheriff Dan Norman is quickly on the case, but his investigation soon sets off a mysterious chain of events, unearthing secrets at the heart of the rural community.
As the citizens of Grouse County assemble in a quest for the truth, their lives intersect in other ways, too: old feuds, new romances, occasional shared dinners with a decent bottle of wine. And by the time the fateful history of the roadside gun is revealed, Dan Norman has problems of his own to contend with at home.
Steeped in the strangeness and wonder of everyday life, West of Loveland is a remarkable exploration of the intricate bonds of family and community, and a defiant homage to human goodness.
