PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
by Ben Tanzer (Author)
Featuring dark character studies of childhood, middle age, and (lack of) grace under pressure, these stories are among the best work of Tanzer's career, and voracious fans of his writing will surely be pleased and satisfied to have these small masterpieces collected together into one easy-to-read volume. So take a stool at Thirsty's, order another Yuengling, and be prepared to be transported into the rusted heart and blackened soul of the American small-town, as one of our nation's best contemporary authors takes us on a remarkable journey to a place full of love and lust and gin and sin.
Previously published as The New York Stories, this classic collection has been revised and edited, and includes a new introduction by Tortoise Books publisher Gerald Brennan.
