"It is . . . comic . . . powerful . . . raucous . . . inspired . . . every bit as good as the first volume."— Dallas Morning News
Here is a new selection of stories from the sellout "Texas Bound" segment of the "Arts and Letters Live" literary series at the Dallas Museum of Art. Among the eight stories—which range from poignant to uproarious —are Matt Clark's surprise-packed fantasy, "The West Texas Sprouting of Loman Happenstance," read by Brent Spiner (aka Lt. Cmdr. Data of Star Trek); Miles Wilson's classic tale of a has-been poet on the downward track, "On Tour with Max," read by John Benjamin Hickey; Mary Flatten's bittersweet other-woman story, "Old Enough," read by Julie White (Nadine in television's Grace Under Fire); and Janet Peery's haunting domestic tragedy, "What the Thunder Said," read by Academy Award-winning actress Kathy Bates.
KAY CATTARULLA founded the "Arts and Letters Live" program in Dallas in 1992, patterning it after the nationally acclaimed "Selected Shorts" literary series she started in New York City in 1985.
NORMA MOORE and RANDY MOORE now live in Denver. They were long-time members of the Dallas Theater Center. They participated in the first four seasons of "Texas Bound."
G. W. BAILEY is perhaps best known for his role as Sgt. Luther Rizzo in M*A*S*H. He is currently artist-in-residence at Southwest Texas State University.
