dc.description.abstractThe Run is a novella-length creative work that follows Dust, a Marine Corps Reservist who performs military funeral services all across Nebraska. In his civilian life, Dust is an English teaching assistant at Nebraska Technical University in Bellevue, here he is having a love affair with Inopine?üe, a married coworker. Dust's mounting disillusionment with the military combines with the stress of his ongoing assignations with Inopine?üe, whose emotionally-abusive and jealous husband, Dave, has begun to suspect the truth. Dust is accustomed to escaping these pressures by running the country roads outside of Bellevue, but when the forest through which he runs seems to grow strangely responsive to his presence, the various murky threads of Dust's life come together in a pattern he can neither decipher nor escape.
