About the Book
(Turtle Press - 1996),
Ed Robison continues to watch and listen closely
to the world around him.
This new collection reveals fresh poignancies
and acutely observed quotidian mini-dramas
that can easily burn into the consciousness
of those willing to pause and listen.
The Man who Saw Himself -- the key story,
is an unforgettable look at the horror of war.
"It wouldn´t be entirely out of line
to characterize Ed Robison as a
Damon Runyon of the resorts, retirement communities,
logging towns and ... porch swings of the Northwest."
- Jim Nisbet, author of Prelude to a Scream.
