From the haunting sensitivity of The Piano Tuner, to the vivid raucousness of Texas Clam Bake, and the wild, sex-and-drugs fantasy of The Fishing Trip, Mike Lowrie takes the reader on a journey through a Texas many readers may not be familiar with. Gone are the cliché cowboys and tumbleweeds of routine Texas fiction from days gone by. Mike Lowrie's Texas stories feature a wide and varied cast of characters and events, such as the day to day goings-on in a major symphony orchestra in The Piano Tuner, or a strong independent woman taking care of herself - and others - in She's No Barbie. Young African American boys are the heroes in Good Deeds. There's even a lesbian biker gang in Texas Clam Bake. Drawing from his own experiences growing up in Texas, the author writes from the perspective of a different character in each story, capturing the essence of a different kind of Texas - and different kinds of Texan. The stories may be tall, but there is a wonderful ring of truth about all of them.
