Book Overview

The author has brought together a generous sampling of his unique stories and fables, many previously published as puzzle pieces in the story-filled train ride depicted in his novel, Sayville Tales. One might call this "Sayville Tales" without the train, the passengers, and the food. The mini-novelette, American Crumble, makes a case for itself as the last entry. Interspersed throughout, there are a number of new short pieces. Long or short, deadly serious or deadly ridiculous, there is no mistaking the biting, social commentary that is the author's stock in trade. A reviewer described these stories as "brilliantly written prose with a unique and witty style that pulls you in as if listening to a talented and animated oral storyteller." Another reviewer described Sayville Tales, the source of most of these pieces, as, " Beautifully conceived and produced, the nuanced use of language, the humor, and the sense of the cosmic brought into the particular with awe and irony, are evident from the first page."
