Call it What You Want

Call It What You Want, a stunning story collection inhabited by dreams and disappointments, good intentions and small triumphs, chronicles the lives of men lost in the liminal spaces between adolescence and adulthood. For all their flaws – as husbands, as fathers, as friends – the characters are portrayed with depth, tenderness, and humanity. Morris’ writing has been compared to that of Denis Johnson, Richard Ford, and Richard Russo, and Call It What You Want balances realism with the surreal, humor with sadness, and explores all the hidden places in between.
