The Flood of '64, David Long's second collection of short stories, is a superbly crafted assortment of insights into humanity. His characters are deftly treated with care and compassion to the point where readers can empathize with them-they can feel for them. The characters in this collection make the same decisions and mistakes, they feel the same pain as I, until I can't help but care for them. The writing in these stories is at times stunning, and the life David Long instills in his characters makes this book nothing less than precious to me.
