The Dancing Horologist & Ten Other Love Stories

The Dancing Horologist is a work of fiction containing ten short stories and one novella, all focusing on love. Some of the stories are romantic but love is a complex subject and some of the stories are comic, some are dark, some are surreal-and some are a mixture of these qualities. A comic strain runs though many of the stories. Eight of the stories have been previously published in such magazines as Playboy, Redbook, New Letters, The Chariton Review, The Laurel Review, and Negative Capability. The unpublished two stories and the novella are more recent efforts which haven't been exposed to the light. Merely Players, the novella at the end, borders on noir fiction.
