Brilliant and absorbing

This beautifully written, deeply thoughtful story is reminiscent of the Portuguese writer Jose Saramago in its precise rendition of bracing observation and quiet narration that envelopes the events of the story without clamor but with heightening suspense. A pleasure to read.

Rick Sanford's compelling story, The Sudden Flight of Mr. Banks, begins as a rather gloomy tale of a mysterious Englishman (we never learn his given name) whose life seems to be stuck in an unchanging pattern. Sanford's story is beautifully written - detailed and expressive. We are drawn to Mr. Banks' life from the beginning, and we continue to read because we need to know how his story ends. He is not disappointed, and neither is the reader.
