註釋People do the strangest things, and who better to explore the strangeness than New Orleans native Jack Strange? In Stranger Than Truth, Strange does just that in fourteen stories crafted with compassion and understanding as well as irony, humor and suspense. In "California or Bust," a woman gives birth in an airplane restroom and then leaves the baby in a trash can. In "An Old Road," a Bible salesman preys upon an old lady's fears and weaknesses to make the sale. In "Hands," a woman believes she's visited nightly by the hands of a ghostly lover. In "1:00 A.M.," a doctor sneaks out of his wife's bed to ride his bicycle in search of his former mistress at an early hour. In "How I Lost My Baby Girl," a man loses his baby daughter forever to his ex-wife. In "Trick Wedding," a man marries a woman he knows for a fact cheated on him. And in "Desmond Rex," sin and suicide turn a man into a monster. These and other stories are sure to entertain, enlighten and delight any reader, and will keep you reading to the end.
