Haze

Junot Diaz, Denis Johnson, Vendela Vida, and Dave Eggers explore the impact of trauma in our lives with four intertwined narratives about loss, fear, and the way our present is shaped by our past. A woman is haunted by a dangerous encounter with a stranger. Two cousins find safety in a cycle of destruction. A man grapples with the ghost of a lost relationship. And at the Starlight Recovery Center Mark Cassandra begins the painful journey away from the traumas of the past and towards the hope of the future. Brutal, darkly comic, and poignant, Haze takes a long hard look at the memories that shape us.
