So tender yet courageous is this fierce family memoir that it makes mass incarceration

nothing less than a new American tragedy.

Michael Alexander Allen, baby cousin of an extended family, was first arrested at fifteen for

an attempted carjacking. Tried as an adult and sentenced to thirteen years, Michael served

eleven. Three years after his release, he was shot and killed. Why? Why did this gifted

young man, who dreamed of being a firefighter and a writer, end up dead? Why did he

languish in prison? In this Ellisonian story of a young African American man’s coming-of-

age in late 20th-century America, and of the family who will always love Michael, we learn

how we lost a generation.

A breathtaking feat of reportage, American Fire combines procedural with love story,

redefining American tragedy for our time.

Shocked by a five-month arson spree that left a rural Virginia county reeling, Washington

Post reporter Monica Hesse drove down to the desolate county of Accomack to cover the

trial of Charlie Smith, who pled guilty to 67 counts of arson. Over two years of reporting,

Hesse uncovered the motives of this troubled addict and his struggling accomplice,

girlfriend Tonya Bundick. A mesmerizing and crucial panorama with nationwide

implications, American Fire brings to life the Eastern Shore and its inhabitants, battling a

punishing economy and increasingly terrified by a string of fires they could not explain. The

result evokes the soul of rural America --- a land half gutted before the fires even began.
