  A quick Internet search for
"Knockemstiff, Ohio" reveals a lazy nexus of shabby houses and dirt roads in southern Ohio, lacking a post office and
grocery store, but rich in legends of epic fistfights and swamp-dwelling ghosts. Donald Ray Pollock, a native of this
"ghost town," populates his own Knockemstiff with living revenants: huffers, murderers, sex fiends, and their hapless
(though not innocent) victims, all tethered to the woebegone "holler" by their own self-inflicted shortcomings and
depravities. Pollock pulls no punches--his prose is blunt and visceral, as well as stylish and skilled--and reading
these mini grand guignols can be like crunching on a mouthful of your own broken teeth. He resists casting judgment (or
sympathy) on his doomed reprobates; predator or prey (or sometimes both), Pollock contemplates his characters with all
the warmth of a "frozen bleach bottle." It's an astonishing debut. --Jon Foro
  
  From Publishers Weekly
  
  A native of Knockemstiff, Ohio, Pollock delivers poignant and raunchy accounts of his hometown's sad and
stagnant residents in his debut story collection that may remind readers of its thematic grand-daddy, Winesburg, Ohio.
The works span 50 years of violence, failure, lust and depravity, featuring characters like Jake, an abandoned hermit
who dodges the draft during WWII, lives in a bus and discovers two young siblings committing incest on the bank of a
creek, and Bobby, a recovering alcoholic who must face the imminent death of his abusive father. The language and
imagery of the novel are shockingly direct in detailing the pitiful lives of drug abusers, perverts and a forgotten
population that just isn't much welcome nowhere in the world. Many of the characters appear in more than one story,
providing a gritty depth to the whole, but the character that stands out the most is the town, as dismal and hopeless as
the locals. Pollock is intimate with the grimy aspects of a small town (especially one named after a fistfight) full of
poor, uneducated people without futures or knowledge of any other way to live. The most startling thing about these
stories is they have an aura of truth. (Mar.)
