Barney's Crew is a short story collection about a world full of disgruntled construction workers, fiercely independent waitresses, sun-stained deep thinkers, artists at a hog dog rodeo, and kids caught in the crossfire of this cruel world.

Sean Carswell, a veteran of the literary scene, returns with his latest work in Barney's Crew (Gorsky Press, 2005). As I implied, Carswell is no stranger to book writing, and this full-length is a collection of well-rounded, short stories. Undoubtedly, the book has its merits, but sadly it also has its fair share of shortcomings, though the latter really aren't powerful enough to pose a threat....

Read the rest in the July 2005 issue of decomP .

Amazing short stories. For people that like books about drinking, blue collar work, and punks.
