Описание:

Eighteen is too early for some young men, even bright and sincere ones, to navigate the demands of starting college, meeting girls, growing independent of family, and facing the draft.

The narrator of this story would hate to admit he learned more about himself from the Army than from college although he knows he failed at both. At twenty-one, with the war behind him, he expects, and we agree, he will cope better with whatever he faces next.

Описание:

Two years teaching in Africa A new PhD envisions an exciting start to his career and soon sees his training has given little preparation for the experience.

How much can a modest young American on his own help in an unfamiliar country? Bretton must set his goals low but he hopes to leave some legacy of his time overseas. He struggles to understand the agricultural college where he is teaching in Lesotho while apartheid rages in neighboring South Africa.

When Bretton returns many years later, he is less modest, less na ve and less ambitious, but still troubled by a crisis no one but he remembers.

Описание:

Three days of snowy urban storm,

Two women lost in life,

One reluctant man with a crooked nose to get them through,

And one good man more.

The city has little mercy for gentle people, but on its hardest nights, it may yet allow utter strangers to meet as humans to confront the dark together.
