‘A Place Called Tula’ is Oxford native Shane Brown’s debut collection.
Stories born from work, family, and life in the south.
Some stories are created from a hard past left behind; others are created from a hard life lived.
Praise for…
“Shane Brown is a natural born storyteller with the insight and experience to navigate us down a winding dirt road blindfolded. His debut collection of short stories is filled with humor and grit, an authentic slice of life in rural Mississippi. Looking forward to much more” -- Ace Atkins, New York Times Bestselling author of The Heathens and Don't Let the Devil Ride
“For Shane Brown, home is not just a place; it’s a state of being. In these essays and stories, he gives us a back roads tour of the places, people, and memories that constitute it, offering an intimate and intimately-textured map of what Willie Morris called the ‘terrains of the heart.’” -- Jonathan Miles, author of Eradication: A Fable
“Larry Brown would have been very proud of his son’s writing” —- Richard Howorth, owner of Square Books
