Richard Plinke's acerbic style and lucid imagination create an entertaining blend of intrigue and satire, as evidenced by this collection of 11, often dramatic and sometimes hilarious stories. Plinke's touch for making the seemingly prosaic and unremarkable come to life in full, multicolor luminescence, with the volume turned up to 10, is on display from start to finish. Each story a gem, from the short and pointed The Train, to the long and engaging It's Not You, It's Me, and takes the reader on a wild ride through the trials, tribulations and absurdities of the capricious nature of being.
These engaging tales will make you laugh and cry...and leave you wanting more.
