In this collection of short stories, Michael Paul Hogan's words pour onto the page, becoming images that are seen, heard, and felt. This is theater playing out on the stage of the reader's mind-brilliant scenery, colorful characters, and punchy, unforgettable plots. Here are stories that are fresh and uncommon, multi-sensory experiences. "Through a dazzling variety of stylistic tones, seamlessly shifting between realism a la Hopper and unleashed, whimsical surrealism, Hogan smoothly leads the reader into a spiraling waltz-barely brushing the ground-meanwhile capturing snapshots of poignant, indelible humanity and delicate, otherworldly shadows." (Toti O'Brien)
