Here are stories about fathers and sons, stories about men and
women, and stories about the relationships between men by one of
our most gifted story writers. The narrator of "The Who, the What
and the Why," begins breaking into his own house as a sort of
therapy after his daughter dies. In "The Human Use of Inhuman
Beings," the main character realizes that his closest relationship
is to an angel, who appears to him only to announce the death of
loved ones. All Things, All at Once reminds us why Lee K. Abbott is
to be treasured: his perfect pitch for tales of hapless
Southwesterners, his way with sympathetic irony, his eye that
skillfully notes the awkward humiliations common heartbreak,
fractured families and records it all in lyrical, affectionate
language. In tales new and from previous collections Abbott
examines lived life and the lies we necessarily tell about it."
