The Triumph and Other Stories (2nd Edition) by Henry Zvi Ucko Adolescent yearnings, mid-life strains, hijinks in the synagogue, echoes of the Holocaust - happiness, loneliness, fussiness - whatever the scene, Henry Ucko's short stories give us rare insights into the human condition with an understanding heart and a twinkling eye. Humor, sensitivity, and empathy triumph in these tales of life's mysteries and challenges. Nothing escapes the sharp eye of this fine writer and naturally gifted storyteller. This second edition includes additional stories and as an added bonus - six poems from his twilight years.
