Adam Wilson – författare

An excerpt from Adam Wilson''s debut short story collection, What''s Important Is Feeling, which humorously pinpoints our most desperate moments of longing—sexual and otherwise. "Soft Thunder" is a short story about the members of a high school garage band who fall for the same girl and then keep falling.

The twelve stories in What''s Important is Feeling follow the through-line of contemporary American coming-of-age: from the ravings of teenage lust, to the soul-deep debauchery of college, and to the stunning loneliness of de facto adulthood—in lovably demented yet incisive prose.

An entire day of the week has disappeared. 

That''s normal, right?

In What About Tuesday? Adam Wilson reminds us that should you ever wake up to find a day of the week missing due to a freak abnormality in the nature of space-time, it''s probably a good idea not to mention it to anyone.

Seriously. Just leave it alone. Definitely don''t hire a private investigator.

Oh, and definitely don''t ask questions. Forget anything happened.

Because, technically, nothing did.
