Summary:

After it Rains, Bill Haugland's first short story collection, gently p robes the human psyche and deftly reveals our foibles. What happens to a man who faces the loss of home and property after the worst economic down-turn in decades? Can a photograph found in an antique store be the key to a turbulent past? What drives a young man to leap from a bridge in a failed suicide attempt? Should a wife and mother decide to abandon her family in a desperate moment of introspection? Does a blind boy possess a talent that borders on the supernatural? Book jacket.
