Horses Blow Up Dog Cities and Other Stories
by Richard Butner

Description:
Butner's forte is 21st-century man -- just a little lost, nothing major -- and his ongoing attempting to come to grips with life, love, and the ultimate enigma: woman. There's an immediacy to Butner's eye for pop culture, architectural and emotionally-revealing details that places these stories in the apartment next to yours, the (good) local diner (not the crappy one), or maybe the bar around the corner.

Not everything's going to turn out right; not everyone's going to do well. But if you follow the path Butner's laid out before you, maybe you'll find the good bar, the good diner, know when to listen, know when to fold.
