In Yarbrough's first collection of stories Yarbrough effortlessly evokes the special qualities of small-town southern life as he examines--with subtle humor, keen insight, and unfailing sympathy--the relationships between ordinary men and women. Yarbrough's characters, though frequently baffled by life, achieve a kind of wisdom, if not happiness, through the bonds they develop.
