Amazing Things Are Happening Here

Jacob M. Appel's ninth collection of short stories features a missing psychiatric patient, a disgruntled alligator wrestler, a whale watch gone wrong and a love triangle set against the backdrop of John B. Anderson's failed presidential campaign. As in his previous collections, Appel's characters drift close to the edge of middle-class stability, always on the brink of toppling into the abyss.
