Love, hate, loyalty, betrayal, innocence, guilt, birth, death, hope, despair. . . . There's nothing new to write about. In the wrong hands, stories can be too familiar. In the right hands, stories show us how we live. John Keeble's hands are the right ones. . . . In issues of craft, Keeble is first-rate."--Ellen Slezak, "Los Angeles Times Book Review"--Ellen Slezak"Los Angeles Times Book Review" (01/17/2007) Inhaltsverzeichnis AcknowledgmentsThe ChasmThe TransmissionThe FishersZeta's HouseChickensI Could Love You (If I Wanted)The CrossNocturnal AmericaFreeing the Apes
