Best known for his Daybreak series of historical novels, Wiegenstein has a new book out titled, Scattered Lights, a collection of short stories. Some of the stories are brand new – all are set in the Ozarks – and all are set in contemporary times.
“In a book made of beautiful, complicated moving parts, Wiegenstein finds a greater sum. Considering these characters, he gives lie to the ways we think and talk about small towns and their people. . . . Each story in ‘Scattered Lights; starts with uncommon understanding and ends exactly where it should, even if the reader leaves that corner of the world wanting more. – Aarik Danielson, Columbia Daily Tribune.
