Opis

Choirboys await the return of a Mexican bandit to their church-despite the fact that he has been dead for 100 years . . . An old drunk in Alaska invents a super alter ego to battle the bigotry and unfeeling he sees all around him . . . The mind of a two-bit comedian is inhabited by the soul of his agent-who he has just murdered . . . An obsessed policeman rents the apartment of a woman who has committed the most terrible of crimes . . . A beggar girl in Bombay is given a shining treasure that she alone can use . . . These and other characters come vibrantly alive in the 25th Anniversary Edition of this finely wrought collection. In settings as varied as India, Florida, Alaska, Mexico, and China, P.V. LeForge sculpts impressions of life that are both rich and unique.
