Vu Do

Blood for a Butcher and Other Septic Stories Vu Do

A collection to make you laugh, cry, and sit you by a fireplace of the mind. You will not get torched, but well roasted. There is Stuart who likes nothing more than a bloody rare steak yet insists on accompanying his friends on a fishing trip. There is Sams who leaves work one afternoon and finds himself no longer part of this Earth but instead finds himself in an intellectually rather frightening disposition. And then there is a tennis game that puts comical heads together, bringing out the players' best and worst 'swings' for one last big set. Do not forget Guenther, the monkey that outdoes all laboratory primates and that fortunately to this day, still resides in a tropical forest somewhere. And last, you will meet Joaquin, a Mediterranean artist long gone now, yet still alive as he ever was, brushed deep in one's memories. Together, these characters and more, create snapshots of the crazy and sad world they live in. We too, are part of that world, and we too, are invited to meet them.
