From Publishers Weekly"Wry, self-deprecating humor is the highlight of this delightful collection of drawn-from-life short fictions, With prose and a warm, incisive comic spirit reminiscent of the likes of Arthur Bradford or Ruskin Bond, Zevy's vivid vignettes find inspiration in people the author meets.But behind these quotidian happenings and their hilarious descriptions, these stories also gently illuminate human foibles and follies. "The language is casual and engaging, with the inviting feeling of being in the company of close friends, after a good meal, relishing a well-told anecdote. This highly enjoyable collection will not only capture readers' hearts with its humor, it will also leave them feeling more charitable and magnanimous towards this world, which Zevy makes seem a touch brighter.

From Kirkus Reviews: "He's at his best proving that the extraordinary exists within the ordinary. Readers will be drawn into these largely brief vignettes, and the line of demarcation between the real and the imagined will cease to matter. In fact, the audience will learn to embrace the messy mixture. (.)

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - When acclaimed comic writer Aaron Zevy began to collect vintage radios, his friends and family hoped they might get a respite from the barrage of short stories which had been filling their inboxes. After all, how much trouble can one man, no matter how unusual and prone to social and dating mishaps he might be, get into while engaged in a sedate hobby ordinarily associated with reticence and retirement In Radio Daze, Zevy, often joined with his usual associates - the Ketel and cran-drinking Lewberg and the misanthropic Goldfarb - weaves tales and vignettes of his time obsessively collecting antique radios.

These radios, in a multitude of beautiful designs and colors, are indeed very real. The stories, however, are pure Zevy - almost the truth. Don't try to figure it out. Just sit back and enjoy.…
