Sooner or Later Everything Falls Into the Sea: Stories

"This beautiful, complex debut collection assembles some of Nebula winner Pinsker’s best stories into a twisting journey that is by turns wild, melancholic, and unsettling." ― Publishers Weekly (starred review)Pinsker has shot like a star across the firmament with Sooner or Later Everything Falls into the Sea.In this collection, Pinsker weaves music, memory, technology, history, mystery, love, loss, and even multiple selves on generation ships and cruise ships, on highways and high seas, in murder houses and treehouses.
