Publisher's Summary

In this debut collection of stories, Zev Good takes the listener into a world he knows and illuminates so well: the middle-class American South. 

In the opening story, "The Sweet By-and-By", an inexplicable tragedy brings to light the cracks in a family's foundation. In "Had", a man recalls his youth and must, at last, come to terms with the one love he could never have. The title story alternates between the present and the past, and tells us a truth we all know but find hard to admit: that to rescue ourselves, we sometimes have to leave others behind. 

These stories, populated with mothers and children, friends and lovers, the living and the dying, reveal the intricate and tenuous bonds that unite us all.

Profile Image for Richard James

A great collection

This is a beautifully written collection of work. Love, Lust, Life, Loss. All themes that everyday people experience told beautifully by the narrator. I wanted to listen to one story each day, I finished everything in 2.5 days. I will listen again to these stories and thoroughly recommend Zev Good A Map of the World. Follow Zev on Twitter to let him know you enjoyed his work.
thanks Zev, xo Richard
NOTE:
Listening again, I hear each story in a whole new light. This is a collection you will need to hear more than once
