Village Voices

"Some of us are on the move; some of us stay put. Some are just starting out, trying their wings, while others are on their last legs, coming home to say good-bye. The birds still sing every spring down along the forest path that runs by the river, where it meanders through the hairpin curve on its way down through the gorge, eventually becoming one with the sound and the sea beyond." In this new collection of tales, Brian T. Maurer captures family life in a New England village. "You learn a lot about life by living in a small town, where everybody has a story to tell on any given day of the week. I've added some of them to the pot, stirring them in with my own, and let them simmer over the years before serving them up for my readers to savor."
