About Call it Madness
Millennial Avah Lavoie's crumbling relationship is the final push she needs to answer her estranged mother's unexpected call: her great-grandfather Opa has died. Driving north to rural Vermont, Avah hopes to untangle the murky history of a family she barely knows. Rumors swirl—about a long-lost farm, a sawmill accident, and Opa's drinking. As a snowstorm closes in, complications escalate. A neighbor wants to buy Opa's house and flip the lakefront land for profit. Trina, the neighbor's sharp-tongued housekeeper, offers rides, coffee, and companionship—but she has her own motives. When Avah tracks down her mother, holed up on a bender at the Blue Lion Motel, she catches a glimpse of the girl her mother once was: motherless, broken, still searching. Avah can't forgive decades of drinking—but empathy stirs.

Praise for Call it Madness
"With striking, deliberate prose, Brett Stanciu offers a harrowing tale for our times. Caught between the grindstones of poverty and addiction, her people are battered and fragmented yet hold tightly the better flickers of the human heart. At turns caustic and darkly comic, Call It Madness never loses sight of the decay within the veneers of social respectability, and how slender the chasm is between hope and despair. A haunting and visceral novel."
—Jeffrey Lent, author of A Slant of Light and In the Fall

"Feisty, likeable Avah returns to Vermont to recover missing parts of her fractured past. There is not a dull sentence in the book."
—Kathryn Kramer, author of Sweet Water, Rattlesnake Farming and Missing History: The Covert Education of a Child of the Great Books
