Haven't read it, but giving it 5 stars, not only because others did too, but I know it should be good. Not only because other people in this review had said so, but because MR. ABEE IS MY ENGLISH TEACHER.
NO ONE else can make reality seem so beautiful! :)

If you live in Southern California and you haven't seen Steve Abee read in person, you should be forced to sit on the 101 at rush hour with a full bladder. This collection of stories and poems is funny, sad, hopeless, glorious,and, finally, real. Steve Abee may not get the press of other writers of short fiction and spoken word, but he doesn't need it. He's got the talent.
