There is fear of the very act of speech, given the narrator?s ruinous stutter. Yet it is the resulting clumsinessthe missteps, the need so greatthat seduces us in ways some smooth operator could not."Amy Hempel The eleven gorgeous stories in Head are remarkably varied in setting and cultural context: a bullying cattleman forces his two stepsons to lay fence in a Florida swamp; a haunted gay drifter hooks up with a rich young Italian in the shadow of the Vatican.
