About This Book

"Moe's Villa & Other Stories, James Purdy's first short story collection in over a decade, showcases twelve new stories; from highly crafted fairy tales about an opera diva whose mega-stardom is managed shrewdly by her talking cat to the little girl who runs off with a fire-breathing dragon to eat turtle soup; from a bizarre account of a desperate husband whose obsession over his wayward ex-wife leads to his fixation on a rare white dove to a visit to Moe's Villa, an antebellum mansion doubling as a gambling casino and safe harbor for lonely boys."--BOOK JACKET.
