Gripping Stories from a Master Storyteller
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Richard Hoffman has written award-wining poetry and is well-known for his memoir, HALF THE HOUSE. In this collection of short stories he gives readers a glimpse into the soul of American boys and the men they grow up to be. The stories are captivating and gripping, heartbreaking, oftentimes redemptive. In "Gentlemen", a man who has failed in his own marriage hopes he can help his son-in-law hold his marriage together. In "Harvey's Birthday" a couple and their old friend visit a nude beach and reveal more than just their bodies, but what they've been hiding inside for a long time. The title story, "Interference," takes a look at what happens when an overlooked boy finally gets attention from a grown-up and in the blink of an eye, his life is forever altered.
