Leaving the Dead is a collection of eighteen stories about the long slow dance with death and the heartbreak of life—no zombies allowed. When a writer runs into the ghost of his father who died of Alzheimer’s, death has restored his memory, and he’s eager to share. An unlikely couple and an abandoned-seeing eye dog find happiness after everyone else dies. A college freshman goes home for the holidays with her lover who claims to be a robot—and takes her to an abandoned factory on Christmas Eve where she was born. A cat on death’s door is miraculously healed by his owner, but lives on and on and never ages. When the broken dream factory shuts down, its most devoted worker has to figure out how the world will get along without broken dreams. A Confederate ghost whose grave marker is a stumpy stone with a number tells what he was really fighting for after the Segway tour has rolled away. In the Vietnam days when BF Skinner was king, a young man fasting to flunk his draft physical raises lab rats for the psych department to run mazes that always end with a one-way ticket to the herpetarium. A young poet turns his art into a religion for the inspiration and the tax break, and just maybe, immortality. A strong young woman hacking a home out of a mountainside thinks she has a rattlesnake problem until she learns to love them, and they love her back. A carnival performer sings a beautiful song and plummets to her death but rises to live and sing another performance, as long as someone in the crowd would willingly die in her place. In a triptych of novelettes an old man traces his alien roots all the way back to the mysterious geological feature known as The Abyss.

American identity has always been capacious as a concept but narrow in its application. Citizenship has mostly been about being here, either through birth or residence. The territorial premises for citizenship have worked to resolve the peculiar challenges of American identity. But globalization is detaching identity from location. What used to define American was rooted in American space. Now one can be anywhere and be an American, politically or culturally. Against that backdrop, it becomes difficult to draw the boundaries of human community in a meaningful way. Longstanding notions of democratic citizenship are becoming obsolete, even as we cling to them. Beyond Citizenship charts the trajectory of American citizenship and shows how American identity is unsustainable in the face of globalization. Peter J. Spiro describes how citizenship law once reflected and shaped the American national character. Spiro explores the histories of birthright citizenship, naturalization, dual citizenship, and how those legal regimes helped reinforce an otherwise fragile national identity. But on a shifting global landscape, citizenship status has become increasingly divorced from any sense of actual community on the ground. As the bonds of citizenship dissipate, membership in the nation-state becomes less meaningful. The rights and obligations distinctive to citizenship are now trivial. Naturalization requirements have been relaxed, dual citizenship embraced, and territorial birthright citizenship entrenched--developments that are all irreversible. Loyalties, meanwhile, are moving to transnational communities defined in many different ways: by race, ethnicity, gender, religion, age, and sexual orientation. These communities, Spiro boldly argues, are replacing bonds that once connected people to the nation-state, with profound implications for the future of governance. Learned, incisive, and sweeping in scope, Beyond Citizenship offers a provocative look at how globalization is changing the very definition of who we are and where we belong.
