"Hi, my name's Bob. I'm an alcoholic. I steal things." But by the time Bob finishes with his outlandish observations and chatter, you'll be willing to let him into your home, just to contribute. This first novella is just the start of the fun, including a fugue of novellas, all three about "Killing Jim." And Robert Kahn once more twists matters so that you, too, will give a thumbs-down to all three Jims, with wry laughter.
