Description
West of Rome's two novellas, "My Dog Stupid" and "The Orgy," fulfill the promise of their rousing titles.

He was that most singular and startling craftsman of the building trade-a left-handed bricklayer. Like my father, Frank came from Torcella Peligna, a cliff-hugging town in the Abruzzi.
