The New Memphis Mop-up: An American Novel

By Peter Prohaska

What is it to live in a haunted country? The New Memphis Mop-up explores that question through the eyes of Clare 'Kentucky' Wolley, recently-divorced, living on his late father's lifeboat, and looking for some meaning in his life. A real estate opportunity comes his way, involving a former military school. The building's mysterious background leads Clare into deeper examination of the city of New Memphis and the troubled history of the region. What is revealed is not only local, national or personal but a confrontation with the persistence of evil. The New Memphis Mop-up is a novel about restoring what is broken, recognizing what is valuable, and facing the fears we keep within us that can prevent us from achieving full humanity.
