The locales within this diverse and eclectic volume reach from rural Oklahoma and sophisticated Manhattan neighborhoods to Southeast Asia and wartime Europe. If there is a common thread running through the collection of short stories, it is the unexpected turns of events made credible through graphic imagery. Carlsen does not have a “message”; his goal is simply to spin yarns, which, he hopes, will entertain his readers.
