The Quiet Time

by Dimitri Keriotis

Overview

In the same vein as Paul Theroux and Robert Olen Butler, some of these stories take place in foreign countries—Zaire (Congo) and Greece—and center on interactions between a host nation and an American visitor. Others are set in the US in the modes of Alice Munro and Tobias Wolff, focusing on human relationships.
Each story reveals a main character’s moral center in the face of unexpected events, some of which seem trivial, others vital.
