There is nothing jaded or ironic going on in Naked Summer—just some wisdom, some excellent observations and some earnestness, some humor along the way, all backed up with skilled, thoughtful writing.

In Andrew Scott’s quietly moving stories, the characters live rooted in loneliness and leaning toward a light. There is wisdom to spare in the way he writes about the choices men and women make and the choices they allow to be made for them.

Andrew Scott’s stories take place in the Heartland, and they will land squarely in your heart. Unflinching but sweet-tempered, they ring as plaintive and pure as ballads.
