The Pink Poodle And Other Stories

Headlining this collection of stories is "The Pink Poodle," a tale of life among Hollywood's elite. What's the difference between an actor and a movie star? One answer is found here. "Bliss" chronicles the struggles a homeless couple must endure living on the streets. "Kate" is a love story shadowed by the ongoing struggle of the Irish people. Both "Joey, Le Flaneur" and "Dumped" detail expat life in Paris. In "Joey, Le Flaneur" a young New Yorker desperately searches for meaning and focus in his life and makes some very interesting discoveries. "Dumped" follows a recently retired man, also a New Yorker, as he flees Manhattan for Europe after a relationship suddenly ends. Heart-broken, he tries to pick up the pieces of his life. On a visit to Morocco, he looks back on his year of travel, focusing on life in Paris. "Obsessed" is another look at how relationships can sometimes go very wrong. In this case the relationship is completely contained in a man's mind, with drastic consequences. "The Hermit's Seed" is a whimsical tale told by a grandpa to his four young grandsons about the strange goings-on in his boyhood village.
