Another great collection of short stories from the master short story writer, George Singleton. The population of Calloustown did seem to be a little more down beat, than some of the other fictitious towns Singleton has created.

I've said it before and will say it again, George Singleton is a genius. With an ear for people's conversation and the ability to bring characters to life, he's one hell of a writer. All that aside, each of his short story collections seem to have one story that's more like what would be fit into a creative writing class. "Between Wrecks" has one of these and it was 80 pages taking up the last part of the book. Since this was my re-read of these stories, I skipped it this time.

Still re-reading George Singleton. Great group of stories with the exception of the last one, which really appears to be a add on and has little to do with the other stories (most revolve one way or another around the flea market)
