A walk at dusk is interrupted by casual racism. A loving marriage is riven by mysterious tensions.

He is a reader, a listener, a traveler, drawn to many different kinds of stories: stories from history and epic; stories of friends, family, and strangers; stories found in books and films. Together these stories make up his days. In aggregate these days comprise a life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eTremor\u003c\/i\u003e is a startling work of realism and invention that engages brilliantly with literature, music, race, and history as it examines the passage of time and how we mark it.
