Come along as Consuela goes about her morning chores while her husband seems to be sleeping longer than usual; an elderly woman is last seen on a soggy, dreary day by two of her neighbors who are playing checkers on a porch—maybe one knows her better than he lets on; a childhood friendship takes a sharp turn down a dark but necessary path and continues through two stories; and who knew trout fishing on a wild river in the deep woods of America could have such an impact on an intense, deadly sniper mission; a writer and his friend travel to Pamplona for the running of the bulls, the friend's attempt to truly live just one more time; as the blowhard Macon learns, training can take many forms, from a good old-fashioned thumping to much worse treatment (that will leave you smiling); a young couple arrive in a bus terminal, both are nervous at their impending separation... or something; you're entering a village to the sounds of fireworks, or maybe bullets; and in southern Alabama, things move at their own pace and are very seldom what they seem. These character-driven stories will remind you of Hemingway's works in his later years.
