People Places and Times

By Vincent Sperando

Vincent Sperando's latest collection of short stories includes the novella, Refugees from Isola Di Spendiosa. Drawing from his extensive travel and vivid imagination, he has created an accomplished and strong work of fiction. In each work the characters and their environments are complexly woven and evoke a reality that is both exaggerated and true. Just one example is The Passing Of The Reins which depicts the struggle between a young boy and his traditional and intense family that "would callously fling guilt back and forth across the table as if it were a frisbee, crushing the self-esteem of even the proudest boy." Each story, unique in topic, rings true and evinces the maturity of its author. Also included in the collection: A Different Way of Living, Little Hands, It Happens To Them Sometimes and The Botero Woman.
