Moments Robert Stone

Lacey's is a cafe in New York where we see three different scenes at the same table, all linked by a common thread, if you can find it. In Blackbeard's Ghost Ed finds his ancestral line goes back to notorious character, with consequences reaching into the present. Rabbit & Mole: Julie lives in Queens, NY. Her past, on the streets, sleeping rough, though behind her is never very far away, as she discovers one cold Christmas. These and other short stories are the best of Robert Stone. The brevity of the format doesn't limit what can be packed into a few words. 'MOMENTS' is exactly that, a collection of moments in life, with unseen beginnings and unknown endings. Nevertheless, compelling, like overhearing a conversation of which we know nothing, and yet are intrigued.
