Reseña del libro "Stories on the Wind: An Anthology of Short Stories (en Inglés)"

This book is an anthology of short stories written by Gardner McKay. Many of these stories were recorded for Gardner's weekly radio show: Stories on the Wind, which aired on Hawaii Public Radio from 1995-2001. Here are a few synopsis of the stories in the book: ALL THAT MATTERS; a couple who writes trashy romance novels finds them to be stronger than realities of life. AN INCIDENT NEAR SHAMBALAH; a married yuppie graduates to manhood among lions. BUTTERWEED; the radio Storyman who writes about the past is offered a listener's house. 41 NORTH, 49 WEST; on the boat deck of an ocean liner in the mid-Atlantic, a man considering suicide encounters a Titanic passenger from the neighborhood, held in the past. INTO THE ROSE GARDEN; a woman who upgrades houses for resale, is destroyed by a rose garden she plans to convert into a badminton court. MRS SONDEGAARD; A Nobel Peace Prize laureate is found to have evolved from a diabolic but pivotal childhood. ONE SUMMER IN CHARENTE; during World War II, a French farm boy kills a cousin and her lover, an enemy soldier. QUID PRO QUO; a mother owl extracts revenge from the Fifth Avenue family responsible for her owlet's demise. THE PINCHBECK GENIUS; a classic painter creates an artist to give a critic what he wants. THE WITNESS' TALE; a well-meaning robbery victim becomes the victim of his own charity.
