Pieces of Honey

By Alan Nelson

After time in prison, Merle Honeycutt disappeared for years. He emerges from the Black Rock Desert, busted, broken, and carrying illegal Indian artifacts he intends to sell on the black market. Raised near the nuclear testing sites in Southern Nevada, he has been on the run from his past . . . his friends, his mother and father, and especially his beautiful and talented sister, Roe, who has pursued a career in ballet. An unexpected visit with his former Paiute girlfriend and her brother leads to a trail of self-destruction and ultimate self-discovery in Nevada and California. Pieces of Honey speaks to themes common to us all: how family life strangles individuality, how the smallest misunderstandings can lead to lifelong tragedy, and how time heals the deepest wounds.
