Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Obsession, jealousy, and thoughts of death are the essence of this surrealistic short story collection by Brown ( The Terrible Girls , City Lights, 1992). In the title story, ``Annie,'' a young girl is obsessed with Annie Oakley and everything Western, but obsession turns to disappointment when Annie Oakley arrives in the big city to promote Western fashions. In ``Folie a Deux,'' a couple becomes blind and deaf to share each other's senses and isolate themselves from the outside world. This experiment creates a dependency that destroys their relationship. ``A Good Man'' is the moving story of a young man dying of AIDS and his friendship with a woman who will not desert him during his illness. In ``The Death of Napoleon,'' a woman becomes obsessed with the image of killing Napoleon, who is really a symbol for the lover she distrusts. Recommended for public libraries.-- Stephanie Furtsch, New Rochelle P.L., N.Y.
