In these ten stories, Steve Clark guides us through an urban terrain of relationships--marital and filial, romantic and bitter--exploring loss and longing in a timeless but modern cityscape. A man leaves his wife in bed with the flu and takes a walk through his past, encountering the dead and living, the real and surreal, on his last day alive in Paris.A couple, who’ve married each other three times, break up at an iconic New York piano bar. A wife casually confesses to a nonchalant husband that she’s kissed a young hockey player at a Thanksgiving party. A girl in high tops becomes oddly entangled with an aspiring artist who works as a bouncer.... Sometimes brash, sometimes poetic, usually humorous, these stories provoke thought, provide experience, and aim to delight.
