In the stories that follow, which span 1958 to the present, Richard Wiley pops back into the lives of this colorful cast of characters--sometimes into their pasts, sometimes into their futures--and explores the ways in which their individual narratives indelibly weave together. At the heart of it all lies Tacoma, Washington, a town full of eccentricities and citizens as unique as they are universal. The Tacoma of Tacoma Stories might be harboring paranoid former CIA operatives and wax replicas of dead husbands, but it is also a place with all the joys and pains one could find in any town, anytime and anywhere. 505 00 $t Out for a drink. $t A goat's breath carol -- $t Home delivery -- $t The man who looks at the floor -- $t The day of the reckoning of names -- $t The dangerous gift of beauty -- $t Let's meet Saturday and have a picnic -- $t Anyone can master grief but he who has it -- $t The dancing cobra -- $t The woman -- $t eHarmony date @ Chez Panisse -- $t The strange detective -- $t Sarco-gophus -- $t Out for a drink. 650 0 $a Saint Patrick's Day $v Fiction. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010114788 651 0 $a Tacoma City (Wash.) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Short stories, American. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85121819 650 7 $a Saint Patrick's Day. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01103630 650 7 $a Short stories, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01117064 651 7 $a Washington (State) $z Tacoma City. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01865280 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1726740 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1726740 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026542 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026339 776 08 $i Online version: $a Wiley, Richard. $t Tacoma stories. $b First edition. $d New York : Bellevue Literary Press, 2019 $z 9781942658559 $w (DLC) 2018007335 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191121023722.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0142748C0C2D11EAA2E5F95597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
