Works"Heart With Joy is a coming-of-age novel that reminds us that not everyone comes of age in the same way. Julian Hale, not quite sixteen, finds himself learning about adulthood, old age, death, his deepest passions, and most of all, what it means to love—family, friends, a girl named Tia, and himself. In his third book, Steve Cushman traces Julian’s development in straightforward, simple language and in so doing creates a remarkably vivid, attractive, credible, and memorable character who stays with the reader long after the book is closed. --Kelly Cherry, author of The Society of Friends
Fracture City
Steve Cushman has written a bittersweet valentine to the luckless, the ordinary people Bob Dylan described as "confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones and worse." Set in the American South, these stories don't dwell on characters' misfortunes; humor and heart bring them moments of insight and grace. A wonderful new collection. -Susan Hubbard, author of The Society of S Portisville
