Wonderful first collection!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Mother Rocket, Ciresi's first collection of stories, won the Flannery O'Connor award for a reason. This collection wonderfully showcases Ciresi's dark sense of humor, sharp dialogue, and engaging characters. A quick, enjoyable read. I also enjoyed Sometimes I Dream in Italian, Ciresi's other short story collection.
