The Man Who Turned Back the Clock: And Other Short Stories (Hardcover)

The Man Who Turned Back the Clock: And Other Short Stories Book Description

In this fascinating collection of his unique tales, Steve Allen, America's premier humorist and one of the true Renaissance men of our time, reveals the breadth of his writing talents as he weaves a compelling array of stories about fields as diverse as comedy, religion, politics, racial prejudice, homosexuality, sex, love, murder, and - well, the human predicament generally, which he perceives as essentially tragic. Some of his stories are chuckle-aloud funny, others are emotionally sensitive or shocking and disturbing.
Drawn from life's raw materials and Allen's own fertile imagination, this is a delightful yet provocative collection of short stories as only he could write them. It's funny, it's thoughtful, it's vintage Steve Allen
