Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc - "These twelve short stories are memorable to me because they are, in a sense, so much a part of my personal experience. Writers write from their lives--this is axiomatic, not so much because their lives are ignited by adventure and romance. What they do is embroider, enlarge what is fairly trivial and common into something bright--even fanciful--with the magic of words." -- From the author's introduction to the book
