Description: In The Exit Coach, a collection of six stories and a novella, the characters arrive at an impasse that requires them to step out of the wreckage of their habituated lives. It is the entrance of an unexpected voice - a visitor from France, a retired talent scout, an invisible friend, a midnight phone call, or even a wild animal - that disrupts their patterns of behavior and illuminates the possibilities they've been blind to, pointing the way to an exit they've dreamt of, but lacked the courage to enter.
