Nowhere, AZ is a unique novel that is unlike anything else I’ve read. It feels as if you’re listening to an interesting stranger tell stories floating back and forth from the past to the present.
The narrator is a colorful character and the events he recalls are unusual. Yet, it feels as if he is someone that I could come across either in person or in a news story. The book reads quickly. The chapters are short and conversational. You just may find it hard to put it down thinking you’ll read just one more chapter and then another and another.
Chris Nunley is a passionate writer who has written many screenplays. This is his first novel and it has a bit of a screenplay feel to it. There is some language in the book and the main character is a convicted killer. As long as you’re ok with this, Nowhere, AZ is an interesting, entertaining and thought provoking novel.
