Description - Hergesheimer in the Present Tense by Morris Lurie

Thirty stories in the incomparably distinctive voice of the author whose publishing career started with the comic novel Rappaport. One story starts with I won a house in a lottery , and proceeds to career seemingly out of control except it isn t. Other stories open in equally startling fashion. Try: Hergesheimer flees his marriage in a twenty-four year- old car ; How do you steal from a thief? ; Show me a man without tantrum and I ll show you a man without blood ; The prettiest damsel in many a moon drops a smile in Hergesheimer s direction, which he, ever the gallant, snatches expertly up, with a bow courteously returns.
