The loss of Leon Meed
by Josh Emmons
From the most unlikely of circumstances--a man who has come unstuck in time--Emmons constructs a story that is both wholly original and poignantly familiar. Part mystery, part meditation on longing, part love story, The Loss of Leon Meed is a gripping, evocative, heart-wrenching novel.

Work Description
Over the course of one December, ten residents of Eureka, California, are brought together by a mysterious man, Leon Meed, who repeatedly and inexplicably appears - in the ocean, at a local rock music club, clinging to the roof of a barreling truck, standing in the middle of Main Street's oncoming traffic - and then, as if by magic, disappears. All of their lives are changed, by the phenomenon itself and by what it provokes in them and are, over time, brought into a strange community of shared experience.
