Product Description
by Jack Carbee (Author)
Twelve diverse stories appear in Morning Wine and Other Stories. Jack Carbee has followed the pattern of great short story authors de Maupassant and O.Henry by weaving character development, sardonic humor and irony into tales told through voices which vary from an aged Parisian to a cat with an attitude. "Night Sounds," "Silencing the Voice" and "Waltzing Mathilda" show how unusual events impact life. "A Stable Full of Wild Stallions" and "Getting to Know Flick" have sporting themes. "Please, Call Me Barbara" is Barbie's memoir on turning 50. "Dark Chocolate" humorously explores how international events affect life in the US. "At the Butcher Shop" expresses that sometimes what is not said speaks loudly. Finally, "The Dark Side of the Dune" tells of a man's struggle to deal with a discovery from his past. Volume #2 will be released later in the summer of 2019 featuring fourteen additional stories.
