California Works
California Works is an award-winning collection of short fiction whose characters dwell on the far side of the California Dream. These brutal, beautiful stories are told in a style that not only pounds on the reader's sensibilities and emotions but claws at the soul. Place is as much a character as the people who inhabit these works: a war vet who rustles cactus near Palm Springs, a teenager living in the shadow of Disneyland about to be pulled into the draft, a convict looking for redemption, a surfer turned real estate agent in search of his lost youth, a Hollywood star on the run from a violent past, a North Coast fisherman whose marriage founders when his son is lost at sea. The texture of Dwight Holing's language is like music and he has the ability to put the reader into another person's head, young or old, and into that person's world, even as that world is ending.
