Three weeks later the man, his father, and an American consular official named Trish find themselves in the bizarre surroundings of a fogbound Munich Airport, where Miriam's coffin is set to be loaded onto a commercial jet and returned to America. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Greg Baxter's bold, mesmeric novel tells the story of these three people over the course of three weeks, as they wait for Miriam's body to be released, grieve over her incomprehensible death, and try to possess a share of her suffering--and her yearning and grace. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With prose that is tense, precise, and at times highly lyrical, \u003ci\u003eMunich Airport\u003c\/i\u003e is a novel for our time, a work of richness, gravity, and even dark humor.
