Still Smiling at Twilight
In STILL SMILING AT TWILIGHT, Mike Marcoe turns his wry and sharp gaze on ordinary young people seeking to break out of their self-imposed ivory castles to gain the authentic lives they have been lookng for in all the wrong places. In the title story, a young narcissist watches at Christmastime as the exalted self he has built over the years crumbles to nothing, leaving him with the bare self he has so resisted seeing. In "Is This Murder or What?" a college dropout's nice side watches and orchestrates his ego's downfall. "I Read to God" tells the story of a repressed writer who finds deliverance in reading his erotica to the Almighty. The thirteen stories in this book employ a wide variety of narrative techniques, voices, and pangs of dark humor to flesh out the tales of the modern heart at war with its better sides. Mike Marcoe's first collection of short and long stories suggests his place as one of today's most compelling new writers.

GOOD & EVIL & CHARLIE RABBIT
Good & Evil and Charlie Rabbit is the story of an overweight, self-deprecating, self-described loser. Charlie’s only comfort in life is his unbending ability to blame all his personal problems and shortcomings on his family’s history, including the mysterious death of his father and the deterioration over the years of his once beautiful and exceptional mother. Nothing changes for him, even with years of therapy, until he meets the perfect girl and finally takes the first steps to remake his future, only to then be falsely accused of a horrible crime. This sets into motion a series of events that ultimately awards Charlie the opportunity to change his family’s history with Divine Intervention on his, and New York City’s, worst September day. Charlie discovers—in this black comedy—almost everything he knew about his past had been filtered through the remnants of one horrible and deadly trip to the Connecticut countryside.

Books and Stories about Russia by Irina Borisova
This prose might seem to chatter, smiling disarmingly, about life of townswomen, ordinary unhappy, obliged to no-one, except perhaps to their own children. But such a sceptical, such a fearless mind sparkles in this supposedly accidental supposedly chatter (without an unnecessary word!) that one experiences some of Irina's stories almost like a victory - the Pyrrhic victory, of course, but the victory over our common historic lot. Yes, maybe we have lost to complete rout, but we can despise our loss. As does this author, for instance
