Description: "In The Secret Goldfish, a trio of erotically charged kids go on a crime spree in Michigan; a goldfish bears witness to the demise of a Connecticut marriage; an extremely unlucky man is stalked by lightning." "Each story stands on its own, and yet linked together they produce a quintessentially American experience - not the stars-and-stripes-on-the-bumper-sticker kind, but the stoned-and-bored-and-looking-for-trouble kind. A subversive humor - and an almost religious fervor - drives these stories, and Means's observations bring them to life."--BOOK JACKET.
