A Box of Matches
Emmett wants to know what life is about. Every day he gets up before dawn, makes a cup of coffee, lights a fire with one wooden match, and thinks. What Emmett thinks about is the subject of this wise and closely observed novel, which covers vast distances while moving no farther than Emmett's hearth and home.
