That tends to keep a writer more obscure, unfortunately. Novels make names. I do hope you'll read this book, Debi!!

It's both the language and the depth of the stories that makes them the kind you want to reread, but his unique twist of phrase is stunning. I think you'll enjoy this collection. I hope you can find a copy soon. If you do, please come back and tell me when you read it! Maybe we can chat about it. I'll be up for a reread, any time!!!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-45695519833204095232012-03-14T12:03:47.497-05:002012-03-14T12:03:47.497-05:00Kevin Moffett is not a name I've heard before ...Kevin Moffett is not a name I've heard before either.

Thanks for the awesome review on this one. I need to see if I can find it because while I don't read a ton of short story collections, this one sounds really perfect for me!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.com
