Salon Reviews Kramer’s THESE THINGS HAPPEN
Rachel Shukert of Salon Magazine has a brilliant conversation with Richard Kramer, author of These Things Happen released this month by Unbridled Books. Shukert also reviews the book calling it a stunning debut and “...a novel of almost-shocking empathy and love.” in an article entitled “Thirtysomething” writer Richard Kramer: “Family isn’t something you make”
Below is the first paragraph of the article as it appears on salon.com:
“These Things Happen,” the stunning debut novel from Richard Kramer, the Emmy and Peabody award–winning writer, director and producer of such praised TV classics as “Thirtysomething” and “My So-Called Life,” is the kind of book that defies easy categorization. Published this month by Unbridled Books and written from multiple points of view, on its surface “These Things Happen” is the story of Wesley Bowman, a thoroughly fascinating and preternaturally — but never preciously — intelligent New York kid whose beating at the hands of gay-bashing bullies in the basement of his schmancy Manhattan prep school (the sort of place where “these things” are not supposed to “happen”) at once brings his family together and pushes them apart in unexpected ways.
