The Hour After Westerly and Other Stories by Robert M. Coates
Requirements: .PDF reader, 4 mb
Overview: These are a few of the people you will meet in a varied and wonderfully readable new book by one of the most original and accomplished of American short-story writers:

Davis Harwell, a traveling salesman haunted by the mystery of an hour he has “lost” somewhere between Rhode Island and Connecticut
Fred Barclay, the respectable assistant manager of a Long Island bank, who decides to become the perfect embezzler
Walter Kettrick, an English teacher who finds that he can read people's minds, with disconcerting consequences
Chuck Cormoran, who plays a lighthearted drunken prank and finds himself abruptly and terrifyingly on the wrong side of the law
Charlie Beckett, who blows in his savings on a voyage to Rio and wonders if he hasn't fallen prey to three card-sharps
Young Donald Acton, who goes hunting in the New England countryside and encounters some fascinating strangers from Mount Olympus.

Irony, suspense, satirical humor, realism, a unique brand of fantasy, and an acute awareness of subtle human relationships — these are some of the qualities you will discover in one or another of the fifteen stories included. They add up to first-rate entertainment.
