Christopher McPherson is a carpenter by trade and a deft writer who demonstrates a dazzling versatility with these stories, many of which deal with polar constructs: desire and loss, tragedy and comedy, truth and fiction. "Maudie" is a tragicomedy in which a zoo trainer grieving over the death of the zoo's hippo must deal with an amorous co-worker and the return of a past lover. In "Richard's Secret", a dead man leaves behind troubling messages for his gay brother. "Hitchcock Diary" features a man who believes his life has become a Hitchcock movie, a reverie which leads him to kill a man by dropping a television set on him. By turns comic and haunting, Everything But the Truth is an electrifying debut.
