Speaking of feeling like a phony… I went to this site hoping to be able to pick apart the writing, to see prose of questionable quality that would make me feel better about myself. What I found instead in Hunger and Other Stories by Ian Randall Wilson was some darn fine writing, full of clean yet descriptive language of the sort I've never been able to get a handle on. The excerpt short story, "The Wire Man", is one of those tales that sticks with you, gets under your skin and haunts you. It is NOT making me feel good about myself.But it's making me want to buy the book.
