(and also his FOR THE SAKE OF ALL LIVING THINGS, about Cambodia
and his GOING HOME, about the returnee vets... all excellent, to
the point of having to put them down to recollect yourself while
reading.)
Also check out THE LAST KLICK... can't recall the author's name
but he teaches writing at Trinity University, in San Antonio.
He also wrote WANDERER'S SPRINGS, about the demise of a small
town in North Texas.
