Men at Risk: Stories Tapa blanda - 2002

Información de la editorial

Traveling from America to Asia and back again, the stories in this extraordinarily diverse collection chart the emotional journeys of characters in search of compassion and love, sometimes a second chance. They speak with a special eloquence to anyone who has ever felt like a stranger in an alien land. Whether set in Bangkok or China during the Cultural Revolution, in the Philippines or India, these stories carry a profound impact. Each tale details a journey of discovery, from the travels of an American searching for his brother at an ashram in India, to a woman who drives her husband's cherished Jaguar into a lake. For the characters in Samuel Atlee's fiction, the world is often a baffling place, and change means having the courage to make the passage into the person they must become. Highly charged and exotic, these stories are infused with surprising grace.
