Beschreibung

HE FALLS WELL is a collection of short stories and vignettes recounting the ups, the downs, and the in-betweens of New Orleans educator and writer Folwell Dunbar. From the Seven Hills of Rome to the Volcán de Fuego in Mexico, from the deck of a German U-boat to the mosh pit of a kindergarten classroom, from close encounters with other species to perfectly planned dates gone terribly awry, the author takes us on an odyssey of misadventures and near-death experiences. He probes (and usually gets stung by) the age-old adage, “Nothing ventured, nothing gained.” He treks into the quagmire of despair, and somehow, miraculously comes out standing — and smiling on the other side.

 

Using concise language and swift dialogue, Dunbar recreates real-life scenes of survival. The book is a funny and terrifying tour de force.   

 

Having a rough day? He Falls Well is the perfect antidote.
