Many of his stories offer flawed characters, using faulty reasoning to make bad choices. Others are more an elegy to lost innocence than what the surface indicates. There's the meth-addled youth bent on redemption by returning to New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, a mischievous imp wreaking havoc in 1980s Berkeley, and a circus clown fleeing his Mexican trapeze artist lover by escaping to Argentina. The reader will also encounter an elusive faun of the Oaxacan highlands, a traveler expiring from dengue fever, a revisionist Jack Kerouac, and a victim of Pinochet's brutal coup, along with troubled chickenhawks and ambivalent lovers trying to work it out in venues as diverse as chatrooms, a junkyard, and a puppet theater.
