Zane's Trace

(2) YA To end his life at his mother's grave, Zane steals his brother's car and the pistol his mother used to kill herself and embarks on a road trip. He's visited by ancestors whose stories intertwine with that of the gun. Wolf's writing successfully straddles magical realism and unreliable narration. The verse format seems a natural extension of Zane's self-contemplation.
