Many thanks to Richard Wink at HST for the short review of Zack Wilson's novel,
Stumbles And Half Slips.

“Stumbles and Half Slips is a superb insight into the life of a man dwelling in a world occupied by fools. This book implausibly inhabits the grey area between social realism and downright awkwardness; as Ray Doyle, delivery driver, stands as the lone voice of sanity in a quaint English town, struggling to comprehend the maudlin muddle that consumes his mind the morning after a night spent slouched by the bar. Zack Wilson has written a brutally honest account about what it is like to be stuck in the doldrums.”

Epic Rites Press, May 2012
“Zack works with both a large hammer and a high definition video camera.  While there is delicacy in the beautiful finely tuned details, there are barrages of hammer blows to the reader’s skull in terms of subject matter.  Nothing but raw lives and beautifully minute particulars.”
– Rob Plath

“Zack Wilson is one of that most important, yet often most overlooked, breed of writers: a chronicler of the extraordinary hearts that beat out ordinary lives.”
– Matthew David Scott

Front cover by Pablo Vision


... where, even at its most simplistic definition, and for the most rooted and domestic of people, is a matter of ever-changing location in time and space: a sphere spinning ferociously on its axis whilst travelling a huge orbit in an always expanding universe; where as determined by position to other fixed points of the same nature is only a relative and partial where: the gracefully curving lines of latitude and longitude are the poetic licence of portraying a spherical object in two dimensions; the relative placement of the planets and the divisions that mark the passage of time: the measurement of a thing and the description of a thing, are not the thing itself: where is it that we live in this life?

... more details to follow.
