Title: The Dog of My Nightmares
Description: Nearly 100 stories about modern American life, all true, very short, that make you laugh and cry, sometimes at the same time. As one reviewer put it, "A lot of people can and do write about small town and big city life, pets, kids, spouses, ex-spouses, the rich, the poor, politicians, school boards and colorful locals. But in my book, nobody does it better than Dave Lieber. Just a sampling of his rich work is enough to set him apart from others... Whether it's the woman of his dreams or the dog of his nightmares (to paraphrase a Lieber juxtaposition), his stories unfold life's ironies a sentence at a time, much to the delight, and in some cases, amusement of his readers. Add to that an ear for conversation and an eye for the askew and you've got what it takes to win first place."
