COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Entertaining stoies---some happy, some sad submitted by sVfGI7Glt2pz7GZgVB90 on August 15, 2020, 6:03am Every one of these stories will blows you away. Jones writes with meticulousness, empathy, and such an immensely deep sense of history and politics. I have read this book twice, trying to work out how he managed to give every one of his stories the heft and latitude of a novel.
