The Wine of Youth: Selected Stories Customer Review: Reading this book is like drinking wine.
The first story goes slow but as you get used to it, you ask for more. Wonderful name for a wonderful book.
Customer Review: The Short Story died when John Fante stopped writing.
The Bell didn’t Jar for Fante. He wrote like a man on fire, a fire of his own creation, a fire that lit up the sky and said ‘Here I am! Take me or cover your eyes!’ His stories are nearly flawless, all are great, and some are beyond great: they are burned into us and they are art. ‘A Wife for Dino Rossi’ is Everyman’s Long Day’s Journey. ‘Home Sweet Home’ and ‘Hail Mary’ drive the reader forward like a speeding locomotive - on Fire. Thank you, Black Sparrow Press for allowing us to warm our hearts and our minds. Thank you, Mr. Fante for never cooling; your sparks have lit a thousand flames.
