Book Reviews of A Fire's Shadow: A Collection Of Short Stories From Life
A good way of telling stories Review by hangmanHere is a book which has a different way of story telling. It seems Clark doesn't follow the same old form letter all the other writers do. I found myself relating to some of the characters who frequently pop up from one story to another. I guess it's a type of running "Stand By Me" deal where you find yourself among the people in the story. It brought back memories of childhood from the city. He does get strange at times and then goes all the way to the other side of the spectrum with a love story or two. The poems were great for the most part and the summer one hit it right on the head. My favorite story was "Only Children are afraid of the dark", I added the first couple of lines, so you can see what I mean.. "Walking through the entrance of the overpass tunnel to the beach, I take my rite of passage that is given to all men. Just give me a full moon, a warm breeze to my back and the smell of salt air in my lungs. What more could you ask of god. There were times that I would not venture out on such a lonely night without a companion by my side. I remember strolls in the moonlight and having her warm hand in mine, trying not to squeeze too hard with anticipation of a stolen kiss. To look in her eyes as they smile at me with a warm glow of a girlish love and affection. I slow my casual stride to a pause, slide my hand around her waist, pull her close and lean in for a light touch of her lips to mine. To feel her sigh and the light breath on my cheek puts a rush of tenderness through my heart. Does she feel the overpowering glow of the moon as it lights the way for our eyes in the sleepless night? We're lost in our own little universe, of a dead silent night. The moon can be funny that way, but this is quit a different moon. It has a familiar cold shine and the smell in the salty air brings back memories of death and loneliness, which can only be imagined by one who has lived through such bleak measures of the deep void we call mid-night." After that part the story captures the very feel of surf fishing on a moon lit night. That's why I love that story for I love surf fishing. I've read the book twice going on my third, it read fast and too the point and my friends have read it at at least once. They seem to have different opinions on which story they like best and this opens many rap sessions. I would definitely recommend this book for all ages over fifteen and that includes girls, women and old timers too. I enjoy Stephen King and in a way, Clark likes to play with you the same way on some of the Chapters in the book. Check it out you won't be sorry.
