A baker's dozen of award-winning playwright Joseph Hullett's celebrated short stories. |
|
Men With Women is a collection of thirteen short-stories by award-winning playwright Joseph Hullett. The individual pieces comprising this outstanding anthology include: The Girl in the Red 'Vette; Outside Mombasa; He Rarely Thought of Her At All; Grunion Hunt; Something Borrowed, Something Blue; Father's Day; Gift of the Maggie; Tattoos; Friends; Rhapsody; End Zone; True Believer; And All Ye Need. Written around the core theme of relationships and the flaws within the male heart, Men With Women offers both a unique look into human nature and a thought-provoking experience in the ups and downs of male-female romantic interactions. Midwest Book Review Men with Women (a gutsy twist on the Hemingway title) is a wrenching collection about men – creatures Hullett casts as tragic figures who, although never really alone, must stand apart to define themselves. Crisp dialog renders genuinely poignant many of these self-made souls. I particularly liked Outside Mombasa, a tale of men told by a woman. Rhapsody has a razor edge, Grunion Hunt is disturbing, and And All Ye Need is one of the most romantic little pieces I have ever read. Robert Kester (reviewed on Amazon.com) |
