Publisher's summary

STAY THIRSTY PRESS Proudly Presents: The Grievers' Group, a new novel by Richard Wiley the 2023 Winner of the Peace Corps Writers’ Award as “Writer of the Year.”

PEN/Faulkner winner Richard Wiley is one of the 21st century's best storytellers. In his newest book, THE GRIEVERS' GROUP, he chronicles the lives of people who have suffered great loss. One is suicidal and terribly difficult to like; another serves up stories of a lifelong series of affairs; a third won a small fortune in Las Vegas while trying to unravel the truth about his late wife; and, another caused the death of a lover – personally delivering it from the barrel of a gun.

It is a wild ride with an unforgettable cast of characters whose stories Wiley unfurls with unfailing sympathy but also with his signature wit and humor.

Stop virtual voice

I couldn’t understand why the narration was so bland and monotonous, with strange mispronunciations, like a robot. At the end, it is identified as “virtual voice”. The story was interesting but ruined by this narration.
