A True History of the Captivation, Transport to Strange Lands, & Deliverance of Hannah Guttentag

Like the Puritan-era narratives she studies, Hannah Guttentag's early-1990s narrative is a chronicle of the strange places she travels-Nashville, Ithaca, New Orleans, Cleveland, Nebraska-the savages who captivate her-librarians, grad students, professors, her baby-and the redemption she earns. Josh Russell's previous novels are Yellow Jack and My Bright Midnight. An Illinois native-born in Carbondale, raised in Normal-he now lives in Decatur, Georgia with his wife and daughter.
