Conditions Uncertain and Likely to Pass Away

By Frank Stanford

Subjects: Short stories, American short stories

Description: Fiction. "These are not stories in the contemporary sense, but tales spun out of the mystical and the ordinary, a history of men sizing up other men and bottles being passed around a campfire. ...If death figures here, there is also the dichotomy of images honing in on an inevitable end and a language that is enormously, relentlessly alive"—Silvia Curbelo.
