If these stripped-down vignettes have anything in common, it’s fading tattoos, excessive drinking and smoking, hopeless attempts at communication, unexpected violence, and untimely death—not to mention coffee, steak, and eggs. Crammed with atmosphere, quirky characters and page-turning plot, Coffee, Steak, and Eggs: 101 Stories from the Wrong Side of Nowhere is perfect for fans of deftly-written fiction with a bit of criminal activity thrown in for good measure.Some examples: • An unknown narrator delivers a bittersweet eulogy for a woman he hasn’t seen in forty years • An unexpected meeting reveals the soul of Thanksgiving • A bucolic picnic erupts in lethal violence as unhinged strangers intrude • Police roughly interrogate a young man concerning his father’s disappearance • A group of toughs demands that an elderly man surrender his truck • A man’s shoes provoke derision from everyone he meets • A high school girl embarks, uncertain and alone, on a new life • A loser with an anger problem clashes with a rent-a-cop in a jewelry store
