Synopsis
Wright Marion Morris was an American novelist, photographer, and essayist. His novel, The Field Of Vision, won the National Book Award in 1957. The book’s focus is a family from Nebraska, now on vacation in Mexico. The family has been in pursuit of happiness despite the myriad of skeletons in their collective closet. During a bullfight they have decided to attend, they begin to reflect back on the actions, and acts of omission that have led them to the fractional point they are currently at. Each chapter is narrated by a different family member and is a charming, intricate slice of life in Midwest Americana.
