A new collection of short stories and essays from the pen of John Pearse, demonstrating yet again the sure touch of a master storyteller. Seldom, if ever, has a British writer so perfectly captured the subtle nuances of small-town American life as he does in such tales as the chilling BAD,BAD and the title story, CAROUSEL. Linking the stories, in subtle counterpoint, are a number of the essays that Pearse fans have come to call the "Linda stories." Often hilarious, occasionally deeply moving, they chronicle some of the rocky shoals encountered when one enters into a new relationship later in life. All in all, a sumptuous feast for anyone who appreciates good writng...and enjoys a good read!

Humorist, film-maker,luthier, musician, music-string-maker, and author of many dozens of 'how-to' books on subjects ranging from instrument construction to wine cookery, John Pearse has acquired a strong fan following here in the United States for the quirky short fiction that began to appear in various magazines in the early nineties. Nowadays he divides his time between his home in Pennsylvania, where he oversees the design and manufacture of John Pearse Music Strings, and his beloved South of France...where he does as little as possible.
