The stories in History Lessons, Cary Fagan's first collection of fiction, reveal the dreams and deceptions that people live by. These works have a vivid sense of place and detail as they trace the inner lives of characters. Among them: an immigrant child strives to keep her world together; an old man with a buried past finds himself involved with a troupe of avant-garde actors; a young Jewish boy comes of age through discovery and revelation. These fictions unveil personal histories, memories, and myths — with all their emotional and moral intensities. They move beyond the surface to surprising depths.
