(2) YA Novelist and short story writer Crutcher has discovered his most effective voice in this collection of episodic, autobiographical essays. Most of the stories serve as introductions to his meditations on such subjects as anger or heroism or religion or cruelty--themes that inform all his work. Crutcher concludes that life gives him "a rich pool for stories"; he, in turn, shares that gift with readers.
