In Double Six, Peter Kaufman presents twelve timely themes in a collection that examines and illustrates not only the characters depicted in the themes but many cultural realities. In addition, there are narratives like those in Mr. Kaufman’s three prior volumes. Of particular note are: Learning Spanish: a Memoir, a non-fiction work based on the experiences of his long, long time friend, guitar teacher, and fellow Korean War veteran, Ted McKown, to whom this book is dedicated; in Looking for Karen Johnson, we meet again the principal characters of, The Vetting, in a series of new, dangerous and surprising situations; finally, we visit Ecclesiastes, in three coordinated timely themes; and also have time for Coffee with a Gemini.
