A Trio of My Father's Tales

4.5/5 ( ratings)

The newest addition to the Trio Tales short story series is a tribute to fathers, containing three stories based on family tales repeated around the kitchen table during the author’s childhood, where all great family legends are born.

In "The Little Lord Fauntleroy Suit" a young boy in 1898 Chicago struggles between peer pressure at school, and his determination to make his immigrant parents proud of him. Can he find a solution to make everyone happy?

In "Flying Down to Couer D'Alene,"and "The Skunk War" the scene moves west to life stateside in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. In these two individual tales, the rigor of Army life meets the ebb and flow of different men from all over the country, different concepts of authority, and what it really takes to be a leader.

“Ms. Cullen's writing is lyrical and touching, the rhythms and characters stick in your mind like a really good tune. I have the feeling she could write about tin cans and readers would come away with a sense of satisfaction and wonder.” ~ Reader Review, "A Trio of Cat Tales"

"Stories as well written as this have a way of opening windows…" ~ Reader Review, "A Trio of Irish Tales"

"Ms. Cullen has a gift for storytelling.” ~ Reader Review, "A Trio of Irish Tales"
