Finalist for the Texas Institute of Letters Jesse Jones Award for the Best Work of Fiction

Publishers Weekly hailed the "wit and subtlety" in Gerald Duff's fiction as "simply satisfying as a tall cold one on a hot Gulf Coast afternoon," and the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette said "Gerald Duff's dialogue is among the best being written, and his sense of the absurd is Portis-like." This new collection of short stories by the author of Coasters (2001) features the Ploughshares Cohen Prize-winning story "Fire Ants."
