Etta and otto and russell and james, emma hooper

Follows the love triangle between three characters from the "Put up or shut up" generation set against a backdrop of war, paper mâché, and a talking coyote. Etta, Otto, and Russell seemingly float from one action to the next, their movements unimpeded by emotions or cost-benefit analyses. A little googling and now I know "Mature/Silents" lived in an era when personal feelings had to be set aside. This book is about them doing what they feel like for the first time. ​
