nMeet Alby, the heartbroken antihero at the center of Matt Sumells ferocious, funny, and wrenching debut Making Nice. n nFueled by heartache, fury, and the occasional pain pill from his mothers leftover stash, Alby is flailing wildly as he tries (and mostly fails) to cope with his mothers death. From his hometown on the Great South Bay to a sailboat in a Los Angeles marina, he stalks the perimeters of calamity: he punches his sister; gets drunk; picks fights; and spews insults at children, slow drivers, old ladies, and every single surviving member of his family. But its in the rare moments of connection--training an abandoned bird up for combat, commiserating with a toddler in a breakfast joint, spoon-feeding his grandmother gelatinized milk--that Alby begins to see a way to survive his pain. n nWith unforgettable style and force and an ingenuous humanity that makes every page feel new (The Guardian), Matt Sumells blistering debut blurs the line between fighting for and fighting with the only family youve got.n
