"To measure the effects of the bombs, the sites were
populated by mannequins housed at varying degrees from ground zero, and
when the devices exploded, their plaster limbs, their furniture donated
by J.C. Penney, the newly Sheetrocked walls that provided them with
shelter, all blew into barely identifiable and highly radioactive
fragments.
Chronicling both the literal and figurative fall out
of a series of mid-century nuclear test bombs, this suite of stories
moves from the desert west to the precipitous northeast and back,
finding remnants of past crimes and ashen memories in every corner."
