Excellent set of stories set in Leominster, MA, in the 1980s with a wide range of characters. Using the once thriving factory town as a backdrop, the author draws us into a world where things aren't perfect, both the surroundings and the people. The stories introduce us to young and old struggling with who they are and finding their way through the world. Some build amazing fantasy lives, some try drugs to keep it together, still others manage to muddle along, looking for some happiness. Highly recommend this book of stories.
