A Certain Place
of Dreams:
With more than a
dozen pieces of microfiction set in and
around the Northern Irish city of Derry,
Ira David Socol carries you to places of
incredible beauty and vicious
nightmare, times of absolute joy and
moments of complete terror.
The Drool Room:
A first grader who
can neither read nor sit still. An angry
junior high student lashing out at those
trying to help. A self-medicating high
school athlete. All this leads us to an
adult police officer on the streets of
the Bronx at the most crime-wracked
moment in New York history.
