Why Men Are Afraid of Women by Francois Camoin

The tie that binds men and women, that makes men do absurd things that they will very likely be sorry for later, is at the centre of this prize-winning collection of stories.

Should be applauded by everyone who reads or writes short fiction

-- Kenyon Review

The men in Camoin’s stories are believable as they struggle awkwardly to relate to wives, girlfriends, little girls. . . . Fine examples of short fiction by [a] gifted author.

-- Library Journal
