Male of the Species

Clowns, refugees, social climbers, the elderly and the young are all bound by the mysterious ties of fatherhood. Alex Mindt's debut collection of short stories is a chorus of fathers and those they love singing in the many accents of paternal connections that befuddle, ennoble, enrage and endure. Each unique voice rings true and clear with humor and poignancy. Mindt brings compassion, wisdom and a uniqie sense of the absurd to the ties that binds. His prose will make you laugh out loud before it breaks your heart. His is a remarkable new voice that brings a loving heart, a light touch and truth telling as sharp as a saber blade to stories whose characters live long after their pages are turned.Mindt, Alex is the author of 'Male of the Species ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781883285289 and ISBN 1883285283.
