'As he proves emphatically with his new collection, T.D. Johnston is clearly one of the modern masters of the short story.'-James Dodson, Editor, O. Henry Magazine Author Marjorie Brody writes of the dozen tales in Friday Afternoon and Other Stories: 'This is an important collection. Powerful, provocative, and significant. To read a T.D. Johnston story is to plunge head first into the world of unforgettable characters, 3-D experiences, and stunning surprises.' Memorable in the fashion of a favorite music album, Friday Afternoon and Other Stories is an eclectic series of powerful tales which, in the words of author Eric Witchey, 'focus on the American experience in a way that reveals the many facets of our souls.' The diversity of these stories, ranging from humor to tragedy, from epiphany to comeuppance, from history to the future, reflects the variety of conflicts and experiences present in the human condition. 3
