A Travel Guide for Reckless Hearts: Stories » (1)

N.M. Kelby is the author of The Constant Art of Being a Writer and several novels, including the best seller In the Company of Angels, and is working on the movie Whale Season with Dwight Yoakam.

"N.M. Kelby writes beautifully. Her characters are unforgettable, and her use of oddball details adds to the particular flavor of the story, which has moments of melancholy and tenderness among the fireworks."
–The Capital Times

The New York Times - Sarah Fay

…in Kelby s artful collection of stories…almost everything…is done in the name of love, whether pursuing a hopeless affair on a beach full of endangered sea turtles, pushing an adopted granddaughter into a nest of snakes, stealing Chihuahuas or setting the furniture on fire.
