Description:
Steven Rinehart's debut introduces us to a world where men struggle with themselves to get to a point where they can struggle with women. Rinehart's characters are dysfunctional, his worldview bizarre, yet his deft and often hilarious tales take us close to the heart of the yearning and desire all of us share.
Here you'll meet, among others: a young man attracted to trouble who gets more than he bargained for when he meets a seductive older woman; a high school teacher who struggles to resist becoming involved with a troubled female student; psychotic boy scouts; a man who, while investigating the accidental shooting of his best friend, finds himself involved with the dead man's wife.
These stories are about men whose lights are on -- but nobody's home. Rinehart conveys a seemingly weird sense of the world that ends up making perfect sense. Remarkable for the strength and distinctiveness of his characters, Rinehart writes in accomplished prose and with style that is astonishing in a first work of fiction.
