PRAISE FOR OHIO BY STEPHEN MARKLEY "Markley's ambitious foray into fiction reunites four high school classmates on a fateful summer night in their Ohio hometown, in what reads like a darker-themed epilog to Friday Night Lights ...Markley's prose sparkles with insight and supports an intricate narrative architecture that recalls Nathan Hill's The Nix and Patrick Somerville's This Bright River ...highly recommended for all literary collections." -- Library Journal (STARRED REVIEW) "Reporters have fanned out in search of answers to Middle America's decline and Trumpist desperation, but Markley is one of the first novelists to fully reflect the social forces at work without sacrificing an iota of character work or narrative tension. Drawing on the reunion-novel tradition, he brings together four alumni of the same (fictional) Ohio high school on one momentous evening a decade after graduation, each with their own pattern of escape and return--and their own mission of repentance or retribution." --Vulture (NYMag.com) " In his bold debut novel, Ohio , Stephen Markley visits the fictional northeastern Ohio town of New Canaan to paint in vivid colors the shattered dreams and stunted lives of young adults removed by roughly a decade from their high school graduation. It's an intensely realistic and keenly observed portrait that puts a human face on subjects often obscured by statistics and expert opinion... a dark and deeply felt examination of a generation confronting problems that can't be solved quickly or with ease...it has earned a place in any conversation about the important role fiction can play in reflecting life back to us when we look squarely in the mirror." -- Shelf Awareness "Markley is a knockout storyteller, infusing each section with realistic detail, from the drudgery of Walmart work to war to the fleeting ecstasies of drugs to violence, especially self-harm." --Kirkus Reviews "Stephen Markley is an expert cartographer of the American Rust Belt and the haunted landscapes of his characters' interiors. A fast-moving and devastating debut." --Karen Russell, New York Times bestselling author of Swamplandia! " Ohio is that rarest of unicorns, a novel that swings for the fences, and actually tries to explain just what the fuck happened to this country after the towers fell, and how we got to this awful particular moment. Stephen Markley goes for the universe with every single sentence he writes. That the universe answers him as often as it does makes for a hugely impressive first novel." --Charles Bock, New York Times bestselling author of Alice & Oliver "If the American dream has given way to American carnage, then this is the great American novel of its time. Stephen Markley is a gifted storyteller who has written a fearless and impressive debut." --David Bezmozgis, author of Natasha and The Betrayers " Ohio is heartbreaking, frightening, and occasionally, amidst the sorrow and horror, transcendent--a novel that casts the clearest possible eye on people haunted by who they used to be and might have become, and a country haunted by the same. Stephen Markley is unflinching." --Kevin Brockmeier, author of The Illumination, PRAISE FOR OHIO BY STEPHEN MARKLEY "Stephen Markley is an expert cartographer of the American Rust Belt and the haunted landscapes of his characters' interiors.

Synopsis
"Extraordinary...beautifully precise... an] earnestly ambitious debut." -- The New York Times Book Review "A wild, angry, and devastating masterpiece of a book." --NPR " A] descendent of the Dickensian 'social novel' by way of Jonathan Franzen: epic fiction that lays bare contemporary culture clashes, showing us who we are and how we got here." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "A book that has stayed with me ever since I put it down." --Seth Meyers, host of Late Night with Seth Meyers One sweltering night in 2013, four former high school classmates converge on their hometown in northeastern Ohio. There's Bill Ashcraft, a passionate, drug-abusing young activist whose flailing ambitions have taken him from Cambodia to Zuccotti Park to post-BP New Orleans, and now back home with a mysterious package strapped to the undercarriage of his truck; Stacey Moore, a doctoral candidate reluctantly confronting her family and the mother of her best friend and first love, whose disappearance spurs the mystery at the heart of the novel; Dan Eaton, a shy veteran of three tours in Iraq, home for a dinner date with the high school sweetheart he's tried desperately to forget; and the beautiful, fragile Tina Ross, whose rendezvous with the washed-up captain of the football team triggers the novel's shocking climax. Set over the course of a single evening, Ohio toggles between the perspectives of these unforgettable characters as they unearth dark secrets, revisit old regrets and uncover--and compound--bitter betrayals. Before the evening is through, these narratives converge masterfully to reveal a mystery so dark and shocking it will take your breath away., "Extraordinary...beautifully precise...[an] earnestly ambitious debut." -- The New York Times Book Review "A wild, angry, and devastating masterpiece of a book." --NPR "[A] descendent of the Dickensian 'social novel' by way of Jonathan Franzen: epic fiction that lays bare contemporary culture clashes, showing us who we are and how we got here." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "A book that has stayed with me ever since I put it down." --Seth Meyers, host of Late Night with Seth Meyers One sweltering night in 2013, four former high school classmates converge on their hometown in northeastern Ohio.
