by Tom Bailey (Author)
These eleven quintessentially American stories fully demonstrate our unstinting capacity for love and loss. As The Atlantic Monthly's C. Michael Curtis puts it, "Tom Bailey's characters live in a world of deceptive simplicity. They move from job to job and in and out of prison, struggle to . . . understand loving attachment, make crucial misjudgments, defend . . . what they believe are manly virtues, and absorb deep . . . disappointments."
