Rules For Being Dead by Kim Powers, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

It's the late 1960s in McKinney, Texas. At the downtown theater and the local drive-in, movies - James Bond, My Fair Lady, Alfie, and Dr. Zhivago - feed the dreams and obsessions of a ten-year-old Clarke who loves Audrey, Elvis, his family, and the handsome boy in the projector booth. Then Clarke loses his beloved mother, and no one will tell him how she died. No one will tell her either. She is floating above the trees and movie screens of McKinney, trapped between life and death, searching for a glimpse of her final moments on this earth. Clarke must find the shattering truth, which haunts this darkly humorous and incredibly moving novel. | Rules For Being Dead by Kim Powers, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
