"Good as it is, this trilogy of stories leaves behind it a wake of disappointment. [It] devolves into a series of three uncompelling satires in which Jones subjects patently unlikeable strawmen to various punishments and gratuitous ironies....To be fair, Jones remains one of our best living short-story writers. These stories only disappoint in light of the high standard Jones has set for himself."Jones, Thom is the author of 'Sonny Liston Was a Friend of Mine Stories' with ISBN 9780316472401 and ISBN 0316472409.
