Damian Crowe is a pipeline welder in Odessa, Texas. He is thirty-four years old. He has spent his whole life being very good at not wanting things.For eleven years, Milo Shepherd has driven twenty miles every Friday and parked in Damian's driveway. For eleven years the apartment has been the right size when Milo is in it and the wrong size when he isn't. For eleven years Damian has stood at windows and said fine and meant something else entirely.In States of October is a novel about love and the distance we keep from it. About grief and the extraordinary lengths a mind will go to in order to avoid it. About two men and twenty miles and eleven years of Fridays and the single sentence that changes everything.It is not a love story with a simple ending.It is something more true than that.
