520 1 $a""The motley psyches in Mr. Burgin's gallery expose themselves in eerily funny monologues...But it is not their strangeness alone that fascinates...Rather, it is the way they twist messages from a saner world to fit their peculiar neuroses. And that is why Mr. Burgin's stories are so dexterous. In them, he has paused near a border, shifting his weight nervously, sizing up the wild, surrealistic landscape that lies just a few paces ahead."---The New York Times Book Review" ""Without showiness or fuss, Burgin writes gorgeous evocative prose... A writer at once elegant and disturbing, Burgin is among our finest artists of love at its most desperate."---The Chicago Tribune" ""One of America's most distinctive storytellers... I can think of no one of his generation who reports the contemporary war between the sexes with more devastating wit and accuracy."---The Philadelphia Inquirer" "Richard Burgin's tales capture the strangeness of a world that is simultaneously frightening and reassuring, and in the contemporary American short story nothing quite resembles his singular voice."---The Boston Globe"--BOOK JACKET.
