In "Elsie in New York", Elsie is an innocent young woman who, upon the death of her father, must look for work to make a living. Her father expected her to trust to the good-heartedness of his previous employer, but Elsie prefers to make her own way in life. Although she visits an employment agency and applies for several positions, do-gooders interfere. Thinking they are saving her soul, in actuality they point her toward destruction.

In "The Purple Dress", two young women clerks have been saving money all year to buy new dresses for an annual gala, the Thanksgiving dinner given by their employer. Both are hoping to catch the eye of a certain attractive bachelor at the party. But interactions with a landlady and a dressmaker intervene, and things turn out much differently than either girl could have imagined.

Seven short stories of murder, mayhem, suspense, revenge - and rugby.

More Than You'd Expect...

Shuster was telling people at the convention we attended, "You don't have to know anything about rugby to enjoy it," and he wasn't just trying to sell his book. Let's say you're flipping channels one night and you discover a Tales From The Crypt marathon with a rugby theme. Intriguing, huh? That's pretty much what Sevanacide is--a sometimes surprising, sometimes disturbing, slightly tongue-in-cheek collection of seven Crypt-ish tales more entertaining than mere warnings not to bother with things you don't understand. It's a quick read done in a light, easy style. Shuster sets up the scenario, then gets to the point right away. I could easily see each of these stories as short films, part of a miniseries, or collected into one big filmed production. Don't despair if your knowledge of rugby goes no further than how to spell it--Sevenacide is a nice little collection perfect for a spooky beach read, road trip, or as a gift for that rugby player or fan.

Short But Good Tale

Of all the Quick Reads I've read, and I've read most of them, this is easily the shortest in length. It's just 70 pages long, most of the Quick Reads books are around 100 pages in length. This doesn't mean it's not worth buying, it certainly is an interesting story, however another scene or two especially with the London drug boss travelling through Wales would have made the story more entertaining. Also instead of a wondering what happened ending, writing another page or two and telling us would have improved the tale as well as I don't really think the plan put in place would have worked. Plus I was just waiting for it to be revealed to Lewis that the child he slept with who he thought was a girl was actually a boy, which disappointingly we don't get to read happening (unless the author believes girls have adam's apples).

Basic plot of this short story revolves around a not to bright man named Lewis, years ago he fled his Welsh small town after the father of a child he slept with found out had a shotgun barrel with his name on it waiting to meet up with him. Upon learning the man had passed away Lewis decides it would be a good idea to empty the safe of his violent drug smuggler boss Jonathan 'cakes' Cunningham, and bash his boss over the head with a bottle and return to his home town to convince the girl whose adam's apple he had so admired while both lost their virginity, to combine her inheritance and his stolen money and move and start a new life in New York with him. Of course Cakes isn't too impressed by being robbed and bashed over the head and is in pursuit of Lewis, set to have his vengeance. Along the way he'll come across some lazy Welsh in a town he stops to grab something to eat. As I said there should have been a few more encounters before he gets to Lewis' town as this was the major entertainment of the short story.

Bring It Back Home is part of the Quick Reads series of stand alone published short stories. If you're unfamiliar with the Quick Reads initiative, they are books published to increase literacy levels by encouraging those who don't like to read beyond magazines and comic books, to try fiction through cheap priced (current Quick Reads all sell of the rack for under two pounds in the UK) short story length fiction and non fiction.

Language: English

Release date: 10-05-06

Publisher: August House

Genres: Fiction, Short Stories & Anthologies

Publisher's Summary:

Mothers: everybody has one, and each has a story to tell. Every mother knows that good parenting can call for heroic measures. As these tales from ancient traditions show, most rise to the task and do the best they can. Whether mothers have starring or supporting roles in these stories, their actions are the ones on which the plots turn. Here are tales of gentle wisdom and fierce emotion, everyday chores, and unthinkable challenges.

(P)2005 August House Publishers, Inc.

Editorial Reviews:

Co-authors and co-narrators Milbre Burch and Gay Ducey are both experienced mothers and internationally known and respected storytellers. Burch and Ducey have mature, maternal voices. They are able to channel the women present in these stories. Some of these mothers work in the margins while others use the main stage. Regardless, each one impacts life the way only mothers can. Some stories bear testament to everyday life, while others are heartbreaking examples of the challenges some mothers face. Burch and Ducey give virtuoso performances here. Their supple voices paint these pictures in small and broad strokes. Both ladies have clear, feminine American accents, but their knack for storytelling is borderless. Listeners will be touched by these culturally diverse stories.
