If you got a mysterious box that said, Do Not Open, would you open it? If your fingers revolted and wanted a different job, would you agree? If you came from a race of giants, or thought about becoming Death’s lover, or couldn’t get rid of a lover no matter how hard you tried, what would you do? These stories contain unusual problems, like finding your world growing dark after eating a piece of cake—and maybe wanting more cake. It’s not hard to find yourself one step outside the normal, as these characters do. The trick is to make it work.

The book opens with the annual spring dispatch, by the Seattle-based Filipino union, of thousands of Filipino workers to the Alaska salmon canneries. We meet characters who reappear throughout the stories: Vince, the tough but charming union foreman and "big shot" father to Buddy, our American-born narrator; Chris, the battle-scarred union president targeted by McCarthyism; Rico, the spirited young king of the neighborhood who will fall victim to Vietnam; Stephanie, the beautiful mestiza who marrie up; and many others who age and change in ironic counterpint to persistent themes of loyalty, fierce ethnic pride, and a willingness to struggle against hostile forces in society. There are wry twists of humor and surprising turns of plot; a long-lost love is renewed; a long-hidden family secret is revealed. We encounter the inevitable aging and passing of the Manong generation, but we sense as well the arrival of its vision. Babies are born. The migrant fisheries worker gets a nine-to-five job, and his children go to college. The conclusion builds to a quiet power that is essentially elegiac; an era closes, but the voices of the older generation are shouldered by the younger, to keep the history to retell the stories, and to pay homage.

A collection of short stories, mostly inspired by true incidents. The stories cover a wide spectrum of the common traits of human nature such as the spirit of adventure, curiosity for the supernatural, stinging feeling of guilt, close friendship, nostalgia, selfishness, jealousy, courage, attachment, and the like. The collection also has stories from the bygone era of the fifties and the sixties inspired by those unique times. The author had traveled extensively to different corners of the country and witnessed unusual incidents at remote places, which greatly enriched him with material for spinning lively and offbeat tales in this collection. The mundane, the supernatural, the old belief systems, and the times of a schoolboy during the early sixties, all find a place in this collection.

A powerful short story collection from Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity Award-winning Barbara D'Amato. Playwright, novelist, and crime researcher Barbara D'Amato currently writes two mystery series. One features Chicago patrol officers Suze Figueroa and Norm Bennis, whose adventures on the streets of Chicago supply six of the twelve stories in this collection. And in "See No Evil," the partners encounter the heroine of D'Amato's other popular series, freelance investigative reporter Cat Marsala. Cat appears again doing a Washington exposé in "Freedom of the Press." In "Dolley Madison and the Staff of Life," the First Lady uses her considerable deductive powers to solve a murder among the staff. A reporter reminisces about his big break, an interview alone with Greta Garbo, in "I Vant to Be Alone." The title story, in which a writer takes revenge on a reviewer, won the 1999 Agatha, Macavity, and Anthony Awards.
