A Finely Tuned Apathy Machine
    Mark Paterson
"A short fiction collection that delivers wonderfully embracing
ups-and-downs and twists and turns with each story.  Paterson
has truly mastered the thoughtful art of taking the reader on a
marvelous ride from start to finish.  A strong second book by a
young writer to keep your eye on!"
