Each story takes just 15 minutes to read, but some will stay with you forever.
These eight stories are funny, clever, knowing - but above all, memorable. Most are about men and boys behaving badly from - what they tell themselves, and us - are the best of intentions. You be the judge.

The eight stories:

Big Girl - She was the most beautiful girl in our school, and no one asked her out.

The Photograph - Youll want to know about Jakes evening gown and his death

Tag Sale - My neighbor, Hyman Skolnick. A piece of work.

The Stove - At the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis, four twelve year olds dress up as Fidel Castros and trick-or-treat the neighborhoods haunted house. What could go wrong?

Civics Lesson - Why would a pillar of the community place an obscene statue on his front lawn?

The Hill - When you are thirteen, everything fragile is the enemy.

Lake Moriah - The books all lie - people drown because the water changes on them.

Getel - I never saw the Cossacks or my father again.
