That Man from C.A.M.P., Jackie Holmes, says: "And away we go! Back to that little room. No, not that one-the one just on the other side of that place they call the dining area. The kitchen, of course. Now, I'm sure you know your way around the other rooms, especially the one with the queen-sized you-know-what, but as I'm prone to mention from time to time, one of the ways to a man's heart is through his stomach, which means you'll have to spend some...

Kenny walked into the old farm house as if he'd never been away, as if nothing he'd done had ever shattered their reputations.
But was this the real Kenny, the man who had disappeared into the night five years earlier? He certainly wasn't behaving like it.

In this collection of shorter pieces, Victor J. Banis demonstrates once again the astonishing breadth of his talent, covering virtually every facet of the human experience with astonishing brevity and clarity. Here are pathos and heartache, love and horror, irony - and humor, especially humor, dry and wry and roll-on-the-floor-clutching-your-sides funny.
