SUMMARY:Daniel Magariel
DESCRIPTION:Daniel Magariel discusses his new book\, One of the Boys. \n\nPraise for One of the Boys \n“Brilliant\, urgent\, darkly funny\, heartbreaking—a tour de force with startling new things to say about class\, masculinity\, addiction\, and family.  Daniel Magariel is an exciting new presence in American writing.” (George Saunders\, author of Tenth of December and Lincoln in the Bardo) \n“Precise and coiled and urgent. Magariel is able–as few writers can–to say so much in so little. A propulsive and intense debut.” (Hanya Yanagihara\, author of A Little Life) \n“With a charismatic\, macho\, drug-addicted dad\, the young narrator pays an awful price to be One of the Boys in the riveting debut novel by Daniel Magariel. Move over Great Santini\, this patriarch is rendered with such artful love\, you’ll be haunted by his presence long after you close this graceful and heartbreaking book.” (Mary Karr\, author of Lit and The Liar’s Club) \n\nAbout One of the Boys \nThe three of them—a twelve-year-old boy\, his older brother\, their father—have won the war: the father’s term for his bitter divorce and custody battle. They leave their Kansas home and drive through the night to Albuquerque\, eager to begin again\, united by the thrilling possibility of carving out a new life together. The boys go to school\, join basketball teams\, make friends. Meanwhile their father works from home\, smoking cheap cigars to hide another smell. But soon the little missteps—the dead-eyed absentmindedness\, the late night noises\, the comings and goings of increasingly odd characters—become worrisome\, and the boys find themselves watching their father change\, grow erratic\, then dangerous. \n\nSet in the sublimely stark landscape of suburban New Mexico and a cramped apartment shut tight to the world\, One of the Boys conveys with propulsive prose and extraordinary compassion a young boy’s struggle to hold onto the pieces of his shattered family. Tender\, moving and beautiful\, Daniel Magariel’s masterful debut is a story of resilience and survival: two foxhole-weary brothers banding together to protect each other from the father they once trusted\, but no longer recognize. With the emotional core of A Little Life and the speed of We the Animals\, One of the Boys is among the most remarkable debut novels you’ll ever read.
