Generation
About this book
Generation maps the survival of a traumatic childhood. Kraus masters the toxic fall-out of abusive experiences by rendering them fiercely meaningful, almost as a dance or a biblical drama. It is an American life more terrible than we are accustomed to seeing, but one that reveals unexpected complexity in the world of K-Marts and bowling alleys, a vision that tolerates contradictions that will never be resolved.
