Book excerpt: From comic fantasy to everyday scenes sketched with photo-like verisimilitude, this collection of stories offers compelling characters, engaging situations and perceptive observations. The title story, "The Muse And The Maestro," is a comedic, novella-length tale featuring the Muse of Comedy, America's favorite playwright and highjinks worthy of a Marx Brothers movie. The six short stories, five about a young couple in rural Wisconsin and one about an old-books bookseller, have a more serious tone. They illuminate commonplace occurrences with insight and nuanced understanding. All in all, the collection will amuse, entertain and enlighten readers.
