A Sawdust Bar
...... images such as a dark lake, a sidewalk wet with rain and blood reflecting a pale moon, a sawdust bar with an uncannily archaic interior, an icy blizzard that sends taxis and buses into each other's grillwork, or an indistinct row house the cellar of which is used to bury the bodies of two members of a criminal gang.

Remembered Sinatra
...... They were from New York, Brooklyn, Atlantic City, Hoboken. They were old actors, young actors, former prizefighters, tired trumpet players, politicians, a boy with a cane. There was a fat lady who said she remembered Sinatra when he used to throw the Jersey Observer onto her front porch in 1933.
