Praise for Desperado Days from Kelsey Trom, Professor at Tusculum University and Editor of The Tusculum Review

In addition to being invited to be a Contributing Editor for the Tusculum Review, the following is praise from Kelsey Trom:

“His stories are unblinkingly true, which doesn’t mean that they are cold. In fact, they give off heat, energy. I haven’t read another writer, living or dead, who does these four things better:

1. Captures courtship, flirtation, desire with both realism and vulnerability.

2. Conjures the stew of friend groups.

3. Accurately depicts the way race operates in American cities, families, friend groups.

4. Nails the orchestral camaraderie and class resentments of working in Food and Beverage.”
