Except for the five points of the Texas Lone Star, there's nothing particularly Texan about the number five--nor the number twenty-five--yet the stories whole-heartedly represent many facets of Texas. In fact, it doesn't get more Texas than this. Or more fittingly, I might say it don't get more Texas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stories in \u003ci\u003eTexas 5X5\u003c\/i\u003e offer both traditional themes and ideas and subjects that are pure Texan. These stories accomplish what solid fiction should in offering thoughts about the more profound ideas we ponder: love, life, death--all told among cowboy-boot kickers and topped with a Stetson.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLAURIE CHAMPION is professor of English at San Diego State University, where she teaches writing and literature courses.
