Post War and Other Stories

By F.S. Rosa

Fiction. It's the quarter century before the new millennium. In these stories, Lena Rossi, perplexed speck in the human continuum, wanders through a last epic party in 1970's San Francisco, before the rents go through the roof and the thrift stores have been picked clean. Dogs howl and she follows them through the Church Street Safeway and the hippie trails of India, while the ghosts of Italian WW II POW's drink homemade liquor in their old prison camp in the Presidio. Author Kevin Killian calls these stories "indelible monuments of the original new narrative movement," and Robert Gluck says they are "sarcastic, irreverent, hilarious and somber while they exemplify a great conscience."
