For some, growing up in a place where everyone knows everybody evokes memories of grandmothers' quilts, cruisin' after school, and leaning in for your first kiss. But for others, a small town becomes a prison and as each year passes, the cell bars grow closer to asphyxiation. In The Town of Watered-Down Whiskey, Geiwitz taps into the nostalgia and claustrophobia of Smalltown, America, where each citizen learns they have an outlandish, wise, regretful, or tragic role to play, whether they choose it or not.
". . . a superb interweaving of history, fairytale, and fascinating characters, through which both the nurturing and the destructive small-town culture emerge." -Jim Swanson, author of Sports and All that Jazz: The Percy Hughes Story
