About this ebook
Crawl Space and Other Stories of Limited Maneuverability is a collection of stories about the fallout from limited maneuverability, whether it be the horror inside the walls of a New York City apartment, the firing of a professor on a college campus, bullying in the basement of an orphanage, the restraint a father feels reaching out to touch a youth, the confinement inside jockey underwear, the consolation of a typewriter over an unreported violence, an actual hanging by boys after a church service, the fatal end of a patient's world following a hospital miracle, the shyness of a classical pianist breached by a man named Ray Rice, the drama inside a Madrid bullring, the consequences of an old man's collapse at a urinal in Yokohama, the rejection of the vegetarian Cain by God, the torment of a pelican under a bridge in Mexico, Presidents' shooting bears or obsessing about scratches on a cherry table, a preoccupation with curtains when preparing for a visitor, how a house full of knickknacks replaces people, the power of beets exposing sibling rivalry, a predicted automobile accident enlarging the stunted lives of two lovers, the claustrophobia over a book of Matisse art, the triumph after the modest boasts of an actual stuntman, the recollections of a stubborn liver in a frying pan, the weekly ritual of Pop paddling young boys, a pearl family's revenge for the horrors of World War II, the secret life of a British aesthete in Japan, and the results of reduced mobility inside an actual crawl space.
