Subdivision

by Stephen Amidon

In the ranch-style homes of the subdivision live middle-ranking executives, their bored wives and their aimless children. It is a self-contained world and when reality impinges, it does so with stunning, often tragic force. The author also wrote "Splitting the Atom".
