Nobody Bats a Thousand: a Book of Stories Steve Schmale

The typical a-typical Friday night of a bartender working a restaurant lounge; a college student reacquaints with his famous uncle, a touring musician; a waitress enlists a private detective in a search for a lostclock; in the twenty four hours surrounding his twenty-first birthday, a young slacker stumbles into epiphanies about life, sex, and his Vietnam Vet father. These and other contemporary stories fill this offbeat book of literary fiction by the author of the novel On the Beach.
