Widely varying in time, subject matter. geography, politics, humour and the lack of it, and including a sharp awareness of the author's physical deterioration, the Two Homelands collection starts in a German men's urinal. Then widens out.
After all, a soccer field's very emptiness might well imply the roar of the fans. Speaking of which, try Beautiful Game Brought Low. Or, for a change, a godless man forced to contribute to a religious ceremony (Matins From the Front). Themes? How about: the rich language of working people in the USA; those whom the economy has chewed and spat out; technology and its fancies; sport, unexpectedly Stories should act as a spotlight. If raw material persists, chances are it deserves illumination. This is Two Homelands' intentions.
