Notes
Description
In this new collection of short stories by New York writer Jacob M. Appel, two brothers fight over a stockpile of antique iron lungs, an elderly suburbanite campaigns for the right to sunbathe topless on her lawn, and a couple whose retirement home is accidentally delivered to the wrong address discovers the current occupant might have other plans for it. Each of the tales in The Topless Widow of Herkimer Street takes ordinary people to the brink of insanity--even to the edge of the earth--and asks readers to consider the fine line dividing everyday life from the mad chaos ever lurking in the shadows.
