The dangers of the open road find a man on his birthday (¿The Rush Home¿), a female stockbroker (¿Don¿t Look Back¿), a rehabilitated troublemaker (¿The Fool Moon¿), and¿a group of drivers within blocks of each other learning disastrous lessons about callous impatience behind the wheel. Within two to three pages, readers will encounter likable¿characters thrust into heated situations neatly resolved with a Twilight Zone-esque twist. Alland explores notions of love and friendship in the standout ¿Finding Home,¿ in which a lesbian college student and a lonesome marketing assistant search for companionship. Also impressive is ¿The Dream,¿ a simple yet accomplished examination of a couple¿s four year marriage¿which hinges on the wife¿s recurrent homoerotic dream. ¿Kirkus Discoveries
