Carter Sickels about his novel The Evening Hour
Host Marianne Barisonek speaks with Carter Sickels about his novel The Evening Hour.
In the economically depressed, shifting landscape of Dove Creek, West Virginia, 27-year-old Cole Freeman works as an aide in a nursing home — but deals drugs on the side to make ends meet. Cole sells his clients a type of escape, but actually leaving seems impossible. When a disaster befalls these mountains, though, Cole is forced to confront his fears and, finally, take decisive action — if not to save his world, to at least save himself. Carter Sickel's The Evening Hour is the debut of a novelist depicting characters in an iconic American landscape in the throes of change.
