Sobre IBD

These stories by Louis Phillips reinforce his reputation throughout his more than thirty books of being imaginative, incisive, and entertaining. The voice is that of a young man, sometimes a teenager and sometimes a college student, who is learning about life and about work. Phillips captures these formative years brilliantly, creating a coming-of-age collection of stories. The characters change from story to story, but they consistently look at the world with a naivete and innocence which exudes great humor, great pathos, and great curiosity.
