Praise for stories in FORT MOMMA: "Surprise and delight lurk in every paragraph of DEFROSTING HOWARD, a well-crafted story written in a clear, strong voice."

"REAL TIME is an humorous insight into the computer anxiety of the early eighties."
-Dan Wakefield guest editor of PLOUGHSHARES and author of sixteen books including best selling novels STARTING OVER and GOING ALL THE WAY, and non-fiction books NEW YORK IN THE 1950'S and RETURNING.

With deepest gratitude to the editors who published my stories:

Reviews on Al Gowan's last novel ZAMORA'S TATTOO

"Marks the debut of a new American novelist of insight, intelligence, style and sensitivity. Al Gowan is a writer with something to say that's fresh and provocative and he says it in a voice that is utterly, uniquely his own."
-Gerald Gross, EDITORS ON EDITING

"A dangerous and startling novel full of wit and grace. Al Gowan is a writer who takes delight in revealing the struggles of his people"
-Melanie Rae Thon, SWEET HEARTS, IONA MOON, GIRLS IN THE GRASS, METEORS IN AUGUST and FIRST, BODY.
