A renowned art collector relishes publicly destroying his most valuable pieces. Two boys stand by helplessly as their father stages an all-consuming war on the raccoons living in the woods around their house. A young artist devotes himself to a wealthy, malicious gossip, knowing that it's just a matter of time before she turns on him. In this new collection of short stories, acclaimed author Paul Theroux explores the tenuous leadership of the elite and the surprising revenge of the overlooked. He shows us humanity possessed, consumed by its own desire and compulsion, always with his carefully honed eye for detail and the subtle idiosyncrasies that bring his characters to life. Searing, dark, and sure to unsettle, Mr. Bones is a stunning new display of Paul Theroux's "fluent, faintly sinister powers of vision and imagination" (John Updike, The New Yorker)"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waialua Public Library Adult Fiction Theroux Checked In Add Copy to MyList
