The Road Less Taken Theodore Jerome Cohen

Theodore Jerome Cohen's first collection of unusual short stories met with such an unqualified success that he was persuaded to prepare a second set of equally enjoyable stories about the adventure we call "life." This book continues his penchant for writing tales that mix truth and fiction in ways even the author's friends and family find difficult to untangle . . . tales about people with whom he's worked or simply known, people who, for one reason or another, struck him as having a story to tell and from whom he learned something that has stayed with him through the years. It's their stories he wants to share with you in this book. Here you'll find unusual stories about a violinist and his wife who escaped the death camp at Treblinka, about a man who, because of his impatience, interrupted a meeting involving President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, and General de Gaulle, and about a friend with a passion for beautiful women and fast cars who dared to live on the edge-stories vividly brought to life in this, the second collection of unusual short stories by Theodore Jerome Cohen.
