Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. n Elegant Gestures: A Collection you'll discover a ghost story; a young mother-to-be, maybe, who is nothing short of mental; proof that one man's god is another man's monster; a family coven; and the rag-draped bones of a reluctant prophet, perhaps, moving along the street cursing your life with his existence.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In this collection of five intense short stories, a writer and his friend travel to Pamplona for the running of the bulls, the friend's attempt to truly live just one more time; Training can take many forms, from a good old-fashioned thumping to much worse treatment (that will leave you smiling); A young couple arrive in a bus terminal. Both are nervous at their impending separation. We assume it's a sad time for both, but is it? Are they running from a problem, or merely solving it in a different way? Along with your companions, you're entering a village to the sounds of fireworks, or maybe bullets. You feel tired, fatigued, decide to rest for a bit, as it turns out, alongside an old woman who reminds you of your mother. In southern Alabama, things move at their own pace and are very seldom what they seem. These character-driven short stories will remind you of Hemingway's works in his later years.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. THE SHORT STORIES IN THIS COLLECTION range from the rural midwest to a small town in the deep south to the Sacramento Mountains of New Mexico to the back-country trout streams of Michigan and a steamy jungle in Southeast Asia. In these stories, a woman goes about her morning chores on the farm she and her husband have shared and worked for more than 50 years. But this morning he seems to be sleeping longer than usual. An elderly woman is last seen on a soggy, dreary day by two of her neighbors who are playing checkers on a porch. Neither of the men ostensibly know her all that well, but maybe one knows her better than he lets on. There's also a pair of tales of warm friendship that necessarily takes a sharp turn down a dark path. Finally you'll live with a sniper team out to get the guy they've been hunting, and who's been hunting them, for several days. Who knew trout fishing on a wild river in the deep woods of America could so strongly affect an intense, deadly mission? If you enjoy Papa Hemingway's descriptive narrative, you will enjoy these short stories. This item is printed on demand.
