David William Vancil is a 44-year-old itinerant degenerate from Chicago with a constant juxtaposed repine and appreciation for life. With barely a grade-schooler’s command over the English language, he has somehow traveled to China, Japan, Mexico, Korea, and all over the continental United States. He attended the University of Hawaii at Manoa, International Christian University in Mitaka, Japan, and countless other colleges while mixing concoctions for everyone from yakuza to celebrities.

'Sense of Humor' and 'Dream Street Rose' from The Damon Runyon Theatre Hour. Damon Runyon is acknowledged as one of the great writers to come out of 20th-century America.

Dai calzini irrimediabilmente spaiati alla cartomante che predice un nuovo amore a tua moglie, il divertimento di vivere ogni istante (anche quelli che dimenticheremmo volentieri) ormai lo conosciamo bene. E non ci stancheremo mai di ritrovarlo. "Ogni singolo gesto, i sapori, l'aria, il tempo, la stoffa, la strada, la persona accanto, il profumo, il panorama, il vento, la porta, il sorriso. Tutto, tutto. La vita non finisce piú, se si sa comprendere ogni singolo momento di un giorno solo."

And with the safety of dawn still hours away, the fun is just beginning.

"Soft Boys" er en samling fascinerende, rørende og sjove noveller, der kan ses som en slags moderne fabler. De handler om unge drenge i forskellige livssituationer, som har det til fælles, at de falder lidt uden for normen.

Her får du en perlerække af originale og tankevækkende historier - med titler som "Bad Boys", "Acne Core", "Volvo", "Belieber" (med Justin Bieber i central rolle...) m.fl., som kan læses af både unge og voksne.

Twister does (as "they" say) what it says on the tin.... It twists us around and spits us out saying "Really?" and "Well I never!" Yes, each of these tales has something unexpected to startle and tease!
