Reseña del libro "Broken Wings: A Collection of Stories (en Inglés)"

You can't go home again, because home is a time not a place." Thomas Wolfe In turning Butch's pages you join ten-year old Billy Johnson at his home on one of the worst days of his life. In Barstools, seventy-five year old Eric is losing his home. You will meet an expatriate executive and his wife in The Ecluse, away from home, searching for the rebirth of their troubled marriage. Instead, cruising along the ancient canals of France he experiences an epiphany. The protagonist in The Math Prize Winner is a modern flawed executive, attempting a final investment and atonement to save his career. The families in The Bad News First face a loss which reawakens the antagonisms and betrayals they encountered thirty years previously. Broken Wings provides a wide variety of characters, plots and dissimilar locations: farms in Grand Forks, Nebraska, a restaurant in Florida, and a funeral in Boston Massachusetts. There are featured locales starting Paris, Seoul, and Hong Kong. The concluding home destination is a 1940's period piece in Huntsville, Alabama. This mini-memoir is a loving portrayal of John Bishop's remembrances of his family growing up southern in the shadows of World War II.
