Book Description
Three short stories. 1."Run Your G-string Up The Flagpole And See If It's Perestroika." A satirical novella about the end of Communism in Russia. The uniqueness and absurdity of the historical situation is beautifully related through lovable and laughable characters, comical interactions, lively dialogues, and sarcastic descriptive passages. An exhilarating page-turner. 2. "Vofkulak." A werewolf horror story with a futuristic twist. Fascinating phantasmagoric imagery and rhythmical prose create a thrilling, but disturbing atmosphere. 3. "Crawling Through Life, Tanks." A short-lived romance between a handsome Comintern agent and a L.A. blond in the 1920's ends up in Stalin's Russia. Tragic and beautiful.

Book Description
In Tell Me Another Story, Marucci examines those closest to her—her grandfather, nephew, and husband—as well as those she hardly knows—the women sitting at the next table in the diner; the roofer she meets on the train. Part 1: Me, is comprised of Emmy's own story—raw and personal—while Part 2: You tells the stories of others. With genuine curiosity and tenderness, Marucci asks of herself, her loved ones, and perfect strangers the child's perennial question: "Will you tell me a story?"
