A young girl reads the encyclopedia to her elderly neighbor, who is descending into dementia. A pair of teenagers seek intimacy as phone-sex operators. A competitive sibling tries to rise above the drunken mess of her own life to become a loving aunt. One sister consumes the ashes of another. And, in the title story, an experimental artist takes on his most ambitious project yet: constructing a life-size ark according to the Bible's specifications. In a world defined by estrangement, where is communion to be found? The characters in This Is Salvaged, unmoored in turbulence, are searching fervently for meaning, through one another."--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hanapepe Public Library Adult Fiction Vara Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Vara Checked out 05/28/2024 Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult New Books Vara Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Vara Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult New Books Vara Checked out 06/12/2024 Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Fiction Vara Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
