Synopsis
In his second collection of short fiction, award-winning novelist, screenwriter, and playwright Bill Mesce, Jr. delivers a powerful gallery of stories that span continents, eras, and the fragile territories of the human heart.
From a snow-lashed bus stop where two strangers share an unexpected moment of grace, to a lost Civil War patrol stumbling through the fog of duty, Mesce moves effortlessly between the intimate and the epic. A quiet conversation in a Paris café hints at new beginnings; a weary drifter lingers between buses and between lives; an altar boy's private rebellion sparks a reckoning; and in the haunting Vietnam War novella Diamond Red, the cost of conflict cuts deep and lingers long.
Mesce's characters laugh, yearn, resist, break, and rebuild, illuminated by prose that is sharp, cinematic, and deeply felt. Each story offers a vivid snapshot of lives in motion-immediate, truthful, and unforgettable.
A master storyteller at the height of his craft, Mesce invites readers into a world where every moment carries weight and every choice leaves a mark.
