Description

Stories. A young man believes his new Saudi bride is a suicide bomber. Stories. A woman hears something crying outside her bedroom window. Is the baby alone in the desert? Is it sick? Is it hurt? Stories. A seventy-five year old holocaust survivor wants to find the man who killed his wife before age becomes an issue. Stories. A battered woman learns rule number one. Don’t talk yourself out of what you feel, what you see. Too many people do that. These are love stories, in their way. Stories about loving each other the way we do.

Praise

“Ron Savage’s tales-through terse, compact, suggestive phrases opens to the reader the inner world of his characters, while understatedly describing an indifferent, often harsh, world within which they are encased-take on many of the vexing issues (such as: war, violence, and the resulting physical and/or psychological trauma) of our contemporary world. His stories reveal what’s going on rather then tendentiously preach about the innumerable social ills of these ‘end times.'”
-Csaba Polony

Savage is an author with a rare flair for presenting high drama situations in which the political and personal intersect, sparking a deep current of excitement that is likely to take the top of your head off if you don’t hold it on.”
-Jim Feast
