Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Gary and Susan Hazen--high school sweethearts married for many years, born and bred in the Adirondack community of Lost Lake--live a simple and honest life and have instilled values in their two grown sons by example. But despite their efforts, Gary senses that his sons are starting to pull away and can't help but feel he is at fault.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Tom Bailey's On Writing Short Stories offers a fascinating introduction to writing fiction and the short story by bringing together eight original essays by professional writers and more than 20 exemplars of short fiction.
