These 14 gritty stories are a revelation, funny and risky, often marinated in meth and alcohol abuse. The weather is punishing, the characters working-class, the trucks hard-used, and the money tight. But instead of a country song, Campbell has plucked literature from her rural Michigan surroundings. "Yard Man" will roll you into a fist, and "The Trespasser" does more in 13 paragraphs than many a novel accomplishes in 300 pages.
