Tender Lies
4 Male, 4 Female
Nancy Pahl Gilsenan Price: $8.25
A tribute to the human spirit, this is the story
of Arlo Gibson’s unusual care and preservation of the
waning dignity in each of the people who populate his
porch
Among them are: an old woman whose once-elegant existence has deteriorated into an impoverished wait for life to end
And A young woman who longs to be an artist but who works pitting apricots to support her alcoholic mother
Along with and a man of strong religious conviction who killed his son’s rabbit in a fit of rage and does not know how to find forgiveness
Arlo suggests that an insecure girl stop wearing dark glasses because ... “You’ll feel safe talking to strangers in broad daylight”
He must also deal with a neurotic who buys lotions for rashes that have yet to happen!
Like an archaeologist, Arlo can, with time, make even his
dullest and most pathetic discovery sparkle
