Title: Small-City America, the Beautiful
Review: "Basketball-bellied men in their fifties heaved themselves out of the low seats of the cars at midnight and went into the doughnut shops carrying police-band radios and wearing camouflage jackets and multicolored baseball caps." What sets Alan Sternberg's stories apart is his ability to capture the physical and emotional sense of what it means to be in the working class today. Written in the early '90s in Connecticut, his collection of short stories remains one of the finest examinations of small-city American culture.
