Underlying the changing pace of Gordon

Weaver s stories is a recurring theme, an

attempt to answer the questions: Who am

I? Where am I ? His protagonists speak as

insiders, as in "Finch the Spastic Speaks,"

and as outsiders, as in "The Salesman from

Hong Kong." Some of the stories are

ironical and satirical; some are nostalgic;

and some are touched with fantasy. Still

others are painfully realistic. All are han-

dled with an artistry and a distinctiveness

that the reader will find engaging.

"Mr. Weaver is well on hisway to becom-

ing a major American author if these sto-

nes are any indication of his ability to work

in strange and almost uncharted waters.

His range is remarkably wide, and he

seems in total control of his material."--

James R. Frakes
