About this product

Product Information

In light of her impending death, thirteen-year-old Beatrice Danzig has changed her name to Christmas. She's at the center of Christmas in July , a novel in ten stories told by ten residents of suburban Saxon Hills: the bored wife of a senior softball slugger, a socialite with a glitter fixation, a beekeeping hermit, a young runaway who can't outrun her past. The novel explores each of these people's lives before and after meeting Christmas--as well as Mr. Ramirez's mustache, The Wizard of Oz, cults and terrorists, Brown v. Board of Education, a band named Wagawagawaga, and the mystery of Aunt Nikki, Christmas's guardian, who sleeps in a closet to keep her demons, real and imagined, at bay. Through ten unique voices, veteran author Alan Michael Parker charts the wreckage of a troubled teen in a small town, exposing the residents' secrets and their all-too-human hearts.

Reviews

Past Praise for Alan Michael Parker "Smart and funny and oddly touching and ravishingly beautiful, The Committee on Town Happiness is typical of Alan Michael Parker in effect but sui generis in form. Some will think of this as a collection of cutting-edge stories. Some will see it as a kind of pointillist novel. Whatever. It's a work of narrative genius." --Robert Olen Butler, author of A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain "Alan Michael Parker's inventive and deeply felt novel touches on both the absurdity and sublimity of small town life. These ninety-nine linked stories skip from funny to sad and back again with brilliant economy and deadpan wit." --Jenny Offill, author of Dept. of Speculation "These ninety-nine stories are ninety-nine percent heartbreaking. The Committee on Town Happiness is also hilarious, beautiful, bold. I love Alan Michael Parker's mythic kindness and vision." --Kate Bernheimer, author of Horse, Flower, Bird, "A thoroughly unsentimental novel...Parker is a master of tonal complexity." -- Kirkus Reviews "Parker's narrative crackles and swirls, spinning in surprising directions, landing with a totally unexpected impact." --Lit Hub "Parker's background in poetry is on full display in this novel in stories that follows Christmas Danzig, a 13-year-oldgirl with terminal cancer....Each tight and poignant story within is told from the perspective of one of the many misfit toys that Christmas meets along the way. All of these lovable goons and more make for a warm, fresh telling of a tragically familiar plight." -- Booklist "Christmas Danzig, a girl 'in the middle of growing up,' charms both resident and reader with her fractured past, her haunting present, and her inevitable future [...] Parker delivers a first-rate heartbreaker that glows with regret, wit, and, above all, compassion." --Jon Pineda, author of Let's No One Get Hurt "'In case of ghost, break glass.' Beautifully touching, funny, and accurate."Anything That Burns You
