  <default_description>Following the success of his first book, Half-Past Nowhere, Joseph Cavano has written another that promises to be even more popular. A tightly written collection of short stories which takes a close look at love broadly defined. A jazz pianist, the author knows very well the power of minor keys. At times exotic, often surprising, they are most powerful when combined with other more familiar sounds; which is what he has done here. The new and the familiar. The dark and the bright. Each blended in such a way as to create a most interesting music.</default_description>
