In the title story, \u201cThe Man Who Screams at Nightfall,\u201d the newly arrived young protagonist finds he resembles the deeply troubled outcast in the village in more ways than one. A beautiful nun flirts with a dying man to keep his spirits up in \u201cParade.\u201d \u201cElla, La Locha,\u201d tells the story of a lost woman struggling to escape her inner demons. Violence and intimacy come to the foreground in \u201cAGORA DOGS,\u201d a story of a young man trying to escape the law. A drug rehab security guard falls in love with an inmate in \u201cRobo-Cop Rides Again.\u201d Ranging from grim to tender, these stories beautifully reveal the intricacies of the human condition. Leaming\u2019s characters are memorable, his writing clever and commanding, and his explorations of life and human consciousness lucid. This fine collection that looks at the complexities of love and life with empathy, understanding, and a rich sense of place makes for a must-read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
