Allen’s fierce first collection, \u003ci\u003eA Method of Reaching Extreme Altitudes\u003c\/i\u003e, the extraordinary emerges from the everyday. Allen’s stories are informed by the vast landscapes of New Mexico and Texas, and in them the mythic and the mundane intertwine: two neighbors burn a grandson’s letters from Vietnam in a backyard grill; a child vanishes into the maze of Albuquerque’s fabled Alvarado Hotel; a sculptor meets her younger self in the eerie stillness of a theater lobby. These are only a few of the unforgettable, mysterious moments that mark the arrival of a bold new voice in contemporary Southwest fiction.","brand":"UNM Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47004144009471,"sku":"9780826369277","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_348c0aa7-94c1-4d09-8489-d9e8373875f8.jpg?v=1774363728","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780826369277","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
