Scantic Books is proud to present a new collection of powerful, gritty short stories by award-winning author Bob Thurber. "Bob Thurber is lightning in a bottle. His writing reaches in and grabs your heart and squeezes it tight. Bob's work is visual and emotional and beautiful in its poignancy. He's a master of sparse, surgical prose. Wise well beyond his years, one wonders at his human insight. I would read his grocery lists." - Vincent Carrella, author of The Serpent Box
