Concerning Everything That Can Be Known and Certain Other Things As Well (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781645383963)

However much you know, it's less than the amount that remains mysterious. That's certainly true of the characters you'll encounter in Concerning Everything That Can Be Known and Certain Other Things As Well. You'll meet suburban homeowners, teachers, a short-order cook, high school students, coffeehouse customers, hospital patients, a paleontologist, pedestrian witnesses to a robbery, a young man obsessed with the night sky, reminiscing television actors, and other lost, deluded, confused characters confronting inaccessible aspects of their sometimes comic, sometimes tragic lives. They have no superpowers or magicians' tricks to help them. They must shuffle along as best they can. Ron Gillette casts a sometimes critical but always sympathetic eye on their adventures (and misadventures!), as he himself is one of them. And so are you.
